3D Visualization of the Heart in Immersive Technology Like Mixed Reality

Guest: Klaudia Proniewska, Ph.D
Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.

The mostly utilized manner of instructing college students the foundations of human anatomy and physiology entails textbooks and lectures. This methodology of transmitting information causes difficulties for college kids, particularly within the context of three-dimensional imaging of organ constructions, and as a consequence, interprets into difficulties with imagining them. Even with the fast uptake of information dissemination offered by on-line supplies, together with programs and webinars, there’s a clear want for studying packages that includes first-hand immersive experiences tailor-made to particular person research paces. In my analysis, I current an strategy to reinforce a classical research program by combining multi-modality information and representing them in a Mixed Reality (MR)-based setting. The benefits of the proposed strategy have been confirmed by the performed investigation of the connection between coronary heart anatomy, its electrophysiological traits, and ensuing wave morphology on the electrocardiogram (ECG). Another a part of the analysis focuses on the position of the anatomy of the guts, e.g., the sinoatrial node, in ECG formation, whereas the MR-based visualization of mixed imaging information with non-invasive CineECG (by Peter van Dam) imaging demonstrates the tutorial software of those superior applied sciences for instructing cardiac anatomy and ECG correlations.

Topics Discussed:
Why three-dimensional constructions are vital to show electrophysiology of the guts.
How the electrocardiogram (ECG) pertains to coronary heart anatomy, and why this relationship is prime in understanding cardiac electrophysiology.
Innovative instructing strategies or applied sciences to reinforce the training expertise in cardiac anatomy and electrophysiology.
The only methods to convey complicated 3D constructions and dynamic processes in cardiac anatomy and electrophysiology to college students or professionals.
