Doctors Can Now Use Augmented Reality to Peek Under a Patient’s Skin
“Compared to the very first X-ray, which was taken well over a century ago, the medical imaging technology in use today is highly impressive. We can take clear pictures of the body’s internal organs, structures, and systems, and those images can help doctors make diagnoses or recommend treatments without having to pick up a scalpel.
More recent advances in medical imaging technology enable us to capture not only still images but moving ones, too. These allow doctors to see more than just a static moment in time; they can see the organs and systems in action.
Now, researchers at the University of Albertaare using augmented reality (AR) to one-up those traditional scans…”
