The main aim of this research is to examine the benefits of using VR to present mobile MRI. Even though such devices were specifically designed for mobility, it is still often unfeasible to transport them across long distances. Hence, new methods are required that help familiarize potential patients and medical personnel with the advantages and shortcomings of mobile MRI. To do this, we developed a system that transports the user to the VR environment populated with the real-scale MRI model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
