VR simulation technologies are being used in medical education and training, for a long time now. Major VR-based companies are developing products which combine 360-degree video and 3D interactive content to develop the best possible learning programs for physicians and students. This technology allows them to practice complex, life-saving procedures in a risk-free environment, improve their skills, and get usability feedback during the process. Today, Virtual Reality is also making inroads in nursing.

VR is being used as a powerful diagnostic tool, which helps doctors and physicians to carry out accurate diagnosis. This is done in combination with other methods, such as MRI/CT scans, and eliminates the need for any kind of invasive techniques, making it a pain-free experience for the patient.

Exposure therapy is one of the standard procedures for treating different types of mental illness. VR is slowly changing the way exposure therapy is being carried out for mentally ill patients, by providing a low cost, flexible and low-risk solution to treat mental illnesses. By providing new ways to keep the body relaxed and calm, VR also helps in treating anxiety and panic attacks.

Cognitive distraction methods have been used by physicians to treat different types of pain for a long time now. VR provides a new face to these distraction methods by providing various interactive games. These games are played in a simulated environment and are loaded with interactive features. While some apps provide therapeutic VR for burn victims, there are also significantly advanced measures that facilitate efficient limb pain management. Furthermore, VR serves as a drug-free pain management alternative, which can be used with or without clinical care settings.

The fitness industry is experiencing a huge change in the way exercises are carried out today. Many startups in the industry are combining cardio routines with VR and changing the way we exercise. Stepping further, VR also has a major role in physical therapy, where patients are subjected to an exercise routine that incorporates VR instead of drugs or invasive surgeries.

Virtual reality in surgery has been around for some time now and has gained tremendous popularity among the physician community. The surgery is performed by a robotic devise, which is controlled by a human surgeon. This method reduces the time and risk associated with the surgery complications. VR plays a major role in tele-surgery, which is performed by the surgeon on a patient at a different location. The feature of force feedback helps the surgeon to measure the amount of pressure that needs to be applied while performing a delicate procedure, such as dentistry, etc.

VR is very helpful in various human simulation techniques and enables doctors, physicians, nurses, and other medical professionals to interact with others. They can engage in different training sessions and interact with a patient, but only in a 3D environment. This is an immersive experience which determines the emotions of the participant using a series of sensors.

VR is very helpful in various human simulation techniques and enables doctors, physicians, nurses, and other medical. Apart from the applications mentioned above, there are numerous other applications of VR in healthcare.
