Benefits of learning technologies in medical training, from full-scale simulators to virtual reality and multimedia presentations

  • Chapter
Rethinking physical and rehabilitation medicine

Abstract

The rapid growth of technology provides a wide range of new learning tools such as multimedia presentations of materials, interactive animated images for anatomy learning, 3-D models, full-scale (FS) patient simulators, and microworld training software, which are virtual reality tools that include high-level interactive haptic properties. These new learning approaches have been recently used in medical training and education.
