This work contains the state-of-the-art in Virtual Reality as
applied to Medicine. Interactive technology, used in many research
and development programs, can be applied to health care by
involving: robotics, computer vision, simulation, artificial
intelligence, image manipulation and storage, data gloves,
man-machine interfaces, etc. The Health Telematics Application
Program, for example, is advancing virtual reality and enabling
technologies (simulation, visualization and robotics) in health
care services for patients, the elderly and persons with
disabilities. This book addresses the following items from the
end-user's perspective: technology transfer, telerobotics,
telemedicine, education and training, and virtual reality. 'the
book would (...) be useful for those researching interactive
technologies in health care, especially virtual reality (...). It
would be also of interest to people who want to keep abreast of the
latest developments in techno-medical research.' - Rod Elford,
