Best Practices for Research in Virtual and Augmented Reality in Dermatology.
ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½
Best Practices for Research in Virtual and Augmented Reality in Dermatology. The Journal of investigative dermatology Muralidharan, V., Tran, M. M., Barrios, L., Beams, B., Ko, J. M., Siegel, D. H., Bailenson, J. 2024; 144 (1): 17-23Abstract
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies have advanced rapidly in recent years. These cutting-edge technologies provide dermatology ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ers, educators, proceduralists, and patients with opportunities in new scientific horizons. VR is a technology that facilitates immersive human experiences by allowing users to connect with various simulated environments through natural head and hand movements, whereas AR supplements a user's perception of their real environment with virtual elements. Despite technological advancements, there is limited literature on the methodological steps for conducting rigorous VR and AR ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ in dermatology. Effective storyboarding, user-driven design, and interdisciplinary teamwork play a central role in ensuring that VR/AR applications meet the specific needs of dermatology clinical and ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ teams. We present a step-by-step approach for their design, team composition, and evaluation in dermatology ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½, medical education, procedures, and habit formation strategies. We also discuss current VR and AR dermatology applications and the importance of ethical and safety considerations in deploying this new technology.
