“…Similarly, in the realm of surgical planning, surgeons can review cases with radiologists in real time and seek insight into preoperative planning and anatomical landmarks. 31 In its current state, VR technology can improve the planning of complex surgical tasks through the presence of simulated 3-dimensional environments and anatomical representations. 32 These proposed collaborative capabilities may thus allow radiologists to strengthen their role as essential team members within the broader healthcare landscape.…”

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology hold potential across many disciplines in medicine to expand the delivery of education and healthcare. VR-AR applications in radiology, in particular, have gained prominence and have demonstrated advantages in many areas within the field. Recently, VR software has emerged to redesign the physical radiology workstation (ie, reading room) to expand the possibilities of diagnostic interpretation. Given the novelty of this technology, there is limited research investigating the potential applications of a simulated radiology workstation. In this review article, we explore VR-simulated reading room technology in its current form and illustrate the practical applications this technology will bring to future radiologists and learners. We also discuss the limitations and barriers to adopting this technology that must be overcome to truly understand its potential benefits. VR reading room technology offers great potential in radiology, but further research is needed to appreciate its benefits and identify areas for improvement. The findings and insights presented in this review contribute to the ongoing discourse on future technological advancements in radiology and healthcare, offering valuable recommendations for further research and practical implementation.
