NUS Medicine to introduce gastrointestinal module for HoloScenarios application

The university partnered with GigXR Incorporated for holographic healthcare training. 

The Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine) partnered with GigXR, Inc., a global provider of holographic healthcare training to introduce a new gastrointestinal module for the HoloScenarios application. 

The HoloScenarios: Gastrointestinal delivers evidence-based, robust clinical simulations that present hyperrealistic holographic simulated patients and medical equipment to be used in any physical learning environment.

Going beyond the VR tech, holoscenarios use mixed reality (MR) to simulate the entire patient journey, whilst including “branching logic to catalyze variance in learning experiences.” 

“From taking basic medical history to performing invasive testing and emergency procedures, the new module empowers learners to master vital medical decision-making and manual skills as they would see them in real-life clinical scenarios and patient care,” read the statement.

The new module also delivers improved realism in training learners to more accurately diagnose and treat acute gastrointestinal diseases. 

“Holographic patient simulation in MR merges hyper-realistic holograms in physical learning spaces that accurately reflect the clinical environment and tools with which learners will care for real patients,” read the statement.
