St. Petersburg Electrotechnical University (LETI) has developed an innovative digital service that uses virtual reality (VR) to train medical engineers, the university's press service reported.
In recent years, there has been a growing shortage of qualified specialists in the field of medical equipment maintenance. Training on real equipment is difficult due to the complexity of the design of modern devices and the impossibility of recreating various breakdowns.
To solve this problem, we have developed SeVRis, a modular software that uses virtual reality (VR) technologies to train specialists in the repair and maintenance of various types of modern medical equipment.
The developed service provides access to interactive and detailed virtual models of various medical devices (pulse oximeters, X-ray machines, MRI and CT scanners). The models simulate the real operation of the equipment. This allows students and specialists to safely and effectively acquire the necessary skills.
Earlier www1.ru reported that in Russia invented the first VR simulator "BrachyHDR" for training specialists in contact radiation therapy.
