Enhancing Anatomy Teaching and Learning Through 3D and Mixed-Reality Tools in Medical Education

We developed an innovative system to enhance medical education, specifically in teaching anatomy and surgical techniques. We applied three-dimensional (3D) and mixed-reality (MR) technologies to create immersive learning experiences. The system enables students to gain hands-on experience in a virtual environment and understand anatomical structures and related surgical procedures. We designed the system architecture, user interface, and educational methodologies. By integrating modern technology into teaching methods, students can engage and improve learning efficiency, and the potential of 3D and MR technologies is validated in medical education.

Abstract

We developed an innovative system to enhance medical education, specifically in teaching anatomy and surgical techniques. We applied three-dimensional (3D) and mixed-reality (MR) technologies to create immersive learning experiences. The system enables students to gain hands-on experience in a virtual environment and understand anatomical structures and related surgical procedures. We designed the system architecture, user interface, and educational methodologies. By integrating modern technology into teaching methods, students can engage and improve learning efficiency, and the potential of 3D and MR technologies is validated in medical education.
