      It is inevitable that the medical industry, which already has generalized to resect and treat by remote operation from an endoscope, looking at the inside of the body with CT scan etc., is adopting VR technology as soon as possible Right. Then, in fact, we will introduce the technology of VR used in the medical field from the viewpoint of both physician and patient respectively.

      Doctor ‘s VR
      You can say that the world of VR experiences with limitless perception of reality is very compatible with the medical industry. You can prepare and help in advance in the timing when failures are not allowed and when only experiences are things. I will explain about VR in actual surgery and VR in terms of education.

      【Practice】 Simulation / Navigation of surgery
      Please refer to the video below for the use of VR during surgery.
