FS: Enhancing Anatomy Education Through Virtual Reality: From Basics to Clinical Proficiency
Description

Session Coordinator: Miranda Robledo

Modern medical education faces the challenge of bridging foundational anatomy knowledge to clinical application. Traditional methods often struggle to effectively engage learners, resulting in difficulties translating anatomical concepts to practical clinical scenarios. In this context, virtual reality (VR) emerges as a transformative solution, countering the limitations of traditional learning that hinder spatial comprehension. Through immersive experiences, VR offers dynamic interactions with anatomical structures, fostering a deeper understanding. This session profoundly shapes anatomy education to align seamlessly with healthcare needs. VR not only enhances spatial comprehension and knowledge retention but also equips educators to elevate their teaching approaches, empowering students for clinical excellence. By addressing the vital bridge between foundational anatomy and clinical competence, this session underscores VR's pivotal role in meeting the evolving demands of healthcare.

This immersive session offers participants a deep dive into the world of VR integration within anatomy education. Through engaging discussions, interactive activities, and hands-on experiences, attendees explore how VR seamlessly enhances anatomical learning.

Learning outcomes:
1.Navigate VR Anatomy: Explore intricate 3D structures through hands-on VR.
2.Apply VR Anatomy Clinically: Diagnose cases using immersive anatomical knowledge.
3.Evaluate VR Integration: Compare VR's effectiveness with traditional methods.
4.Innovate Teaching: Collaboratively devise captivating VR-based strategies.
5.Enhance Learning: Formulate plans to elevate anatomy teaching via VR.

This proposed focus session presents a comprehensive journey into the realm of VR-enhanced anatomy education. Delve into the advantages of VR, navigate its interfaces, apply anatomical insights clinically, critically assess its impact, foster innovative approaches, and strategize for seamless implementation.
