There is a tremendous interest among researchers for the
development of virtual, augmented reality and games technologies
due to their widespread applications in medicine and healthcare. To
date the major applications of these technologies include medical
simulation, telemedicine, medical and healthcare training, pain
control, visualisation aid for surgery, rehabilitation in cases
such as stroke, phobia and trauma therapies. Many recent studies
have identified the benefits of using Virtual Reality, Augmented
Reality or serious games in a variety of medical applications. This
research volume on Virtual, Augmented Reality and Serious Games for
Healthcare 1 offers an insightful introduction to the theories,
development and applications of virtual, augmented reality and
digital games technologies in medical and clinical settings and
healthcare in general. It is divided into six sections: section one
presents a selection of applications in medical education and
healthcare management; Section two relates to the nursing training,
health literacy and healthy behaviour; Section three presents the
applications of Virtual Reality in neuropsychology; Section four
includes a number of applications in motor rehabilitation; Section
five aimed at therapeutic games for various diseases; and the final
section presents the applications of Virtual Reality in healing and
restoration. This book is directed to the healthcare professionals,
scientists, researchers, professors and the students who wish to
explore the applications of virtual, augmented reality and serious
games in healthcare further.
