Scientists have used the latest technology to treat cancer, and they are always happy with the news, but VR and cancer treatment seem to be irrelevant. However, researchers at the University of Cambridge are currently exploring the use of VR technology in the treatment of cancer.
Greg Hannon, the project's lead researcher, said, "We want to create interactive, realistic 3D tumor maps where scientists can 'walk into' tumors and study their details in a virtual reality environment."
From the flow point of view, the tumor is first cut into very thin sections, and then these sections are imaged and analyzed until the genetic composition of each cell is analyzed. All slices will be assembled into a 3D model, and researchers can conduct research and experiments in a virtual environment. Of course, the Cambridge University study is not the latest, and they hope to provide more detailed details and interactivity.
In principle, the treatment of cancer by VR is more about displaying the process of cancer cell lesions, allowing scientists to more intuitively understand the "root of disease" and thus determine the treatment plan, not like the media said "the gods", Just use "shock" and "subversion" to describe. The VR dimension has compiled some cases that have been tested, and the basic principles are similar.
Oculus application reveals how DNA mutates
Researchers at the Wellcome Medical Center in New York City have begun using VR technology to better understand the state of cancer gene mutations. They developed a new program for the Oculus helmet that allows users to see and interact with 3D models of microscopic proteins.
The project, called "IPM VR," means "Precision Medicine VR Institute," designed to make it easier for researchers to determine where mutations in the patient's DNA have occurred and how mutations have occurred, leading to cancer, their goals. It is to help doctors across the country better understand mutations and quickly find the best treatment to attack the disease.
