“…The use of immersive experiences to facilitate the teaching and learning of complex subject matter enables resource-efficient teaching of theoretical and practical content [ 53 ]. The application of different extended reality technologies, including VR, AR, and MR is applicable to educating students as well as training physicians [ 54 ]. For example, extended reality technologies are currently being used in orthopedic computer-assisted surgery (CAS) systems and training simulators to increase surgical accuracy, improve outcomes, and reduce complications [ 55 , 56 ].…”

The benefit of computer-assisted planning in head and neck ablative and reconstructive surgery has been extensively documented over the last decade. This approach has been proven to offer a more secure surgical procedure. In the treatment of cancer of the head and neck, computer-assisted surgery can be used to visualize and estimate the location and extent of the tumor mass. Nowadays, some software tools even allow the visualization of the structures of interest in a mixed reality environment. However, the precise integration of mixed reality systems into a daily clinical routine is still a challenge. To date, this technology is not yet fully integrated into clinical settings such as the tumor board, surgical planning for head and neck tumors, or medical and surgical education. As a consequence, the handling of these systems is still of an experimental nature, and decision-making based on the presented data is not yet widely used. The aim of this paper is to present a novel, user-friendly 3D planning and mixed reality software and its potential application for ablative and reconstructive head and neck surgery.

“…Particularly, when used for medical students, following proper educational strategies, using experienced mentors, and extensive content with a wide variety of features, VR-based education can arguably be the method of choice for teaching during COVID-19 limitations (38, 51). Positive outcomes, bene ts for medical students, and professors, facilitation of the content transition, and improvement of the educational process, with VR-enhanced learning, are some of the most mentioned conclusions in the entered studies (29,35,42,43) Furthermore, increased students' engagement/participation, enjoyment, motivation, and focus were also frequently observed (28,32,41,43).…”

“…A majority of the applications were designed to simulate realworld learning experiences, the participant's physical location was either an academic center or a hospital setting. Distance learning can allow participants to access the learning materials and resources including digital learning resources encompassing video, audio, text, animations, and images of a relevant course or class, and some studies have found that students prefer it to traditional educational methods (29,44). Additionally, a metaanalysis showed that there is a statistically signi cant difference in exam pass rates between medical students undertaking VR-based education, higher pass rates, and traditional method (50).…”

Introduction: With the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease and the virtualization of education, many challenges were created in the field of medical education. Many of these challenges were turned into opportunities with the help of new technologies such as virtual reality. The purpose of this research was to investigate the applications of virtual reality in medical education in the era of COVID-19. Methods: We aimed to investigate new technologies’ applications in medical education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Original English articles were browsed in online databases of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Scienceas of November 24, 2022. Data of eligible publications were extracted following screening/ selection in two steps and applying inclusion/ exclusion criteria. This systematic review follows PRISMA checklist and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) bias assessment tool. Results: Based on the included articles, Microsoft HoloLense2 and Meta Oculus devices were used extensively in medical training studies. In some of the studies, the results demonstrated that the use of these technologies resulted in high levels of engagement, was suitable for training purposes, and decreased the risk of medical learning practicums. Moreover, some studies observed improvement in training compared to traditional training systems. Conclusion: Extended reality use including Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Augmented Reality (AR) concepts in teaching activities and practical procedures can improve the overall educational process, while also increasing engagement, motivation, and understanding of key concepts of participants, especially medical students.

“…The Onodi cell is but one variant among many within the nasal and paranasal spaces, and therefore in many cases closely related to other anomalies. Additionally, CT may not be the only tool available in the near future; in development 3D imaging and mixed reality (MR) technology may allow researchers and clinicians an even better approach to the paranasal structures, furthering this research [20].…”
