“…Integrating digital multimodal applications into the education of future professionals is likely to better prepare them as scientists (RQ3). For example, in medicine, a diagnosis can be based on and validated according to the correct interpretation of a patient's CT scans [20]. The application of the proposed digital solution in the education of medical students could simulate the process of diagnosis of diseases based on tomography (RQ3).…”

“…2024, 7, 55 2 of 20 geometries [19]. The use of computed tomography scans (CT scans) in medicine enables the doctor to draw safe conclusions or estimates about a patient's condition, such as the early diagnosis of a cancerous tumor or the healing process of a broken bone [20]. In cultural heritage, the use of CT scans can help to document the findings holistically without applying deductive methods to investigate their internal structure [21].…”

The urgent need for research and study with nondestructive and noninvasive methods and the preservation of cultural heritage led to the development and application of methodologies for the multi-level digitization of cultural elements. Photogrammetry and three-dimensional scanning offer photorealistic and accurate digital representations, while X-rays and computed tomography reveal properties and characteristics of the internal and invisible structure of objects. However, the investigation of and access to these datasets are, in several cases, limited due to the increased computing resources and the special knowledge required for their processing and analysis. The evolution of immersive technologies and the creative industry of video games offers unique user experiences. Game engines are the ideal platform to host the development of easy-to-use applications that combine heterogeneous data while simultaneously integrating immersive and emerging technologies. This article seeks to shed light on how heterogeneous digital representations of 3D imaging and tomography can be harmoniously combined in a virtual space and, through simple interactions, provide holistic knowledge and enhanced experience to end users. This research builds on previous experience concerning the virtual museum for the Antikythera Mechanism and describes a conceptual framework for the design and development of an affordable and easy-to-use display tool for combined representations of heterogeneous datasets in the virtual space. Our solution was validated by 62 users who participated in tests and evaluations. The results show that the proposed methodology met its objectives. Apart from cultural heritage, the specific methodology could be easily extended and adapted for training purposes in a wide field of application, such as in education, health, engineering, industry, and more.

“…According to domestic and international reports, the causes of lung cancer are related to smoking, air pollution, occupation and heredity [ 1 , 2 ]. However, due to differences in cultural backgrounds, it has been found that about 2.9% of female lung cancer patients in Taiwan are smokers, which is much lower than the United States, at 10% [ 3 , 4 ].…”

Several trials have shown that low-dose computed tomography-based lung cancer screening (LCS) allows a substantial reduction in lung cancer-related mortality, carrying the potential for other clinical benefits. There are, however, some uncertainties to be clarified and several aspects to be implemented to optimize advantages and minimize the potential harms of LCS. This review summarizes current evidence on LCS, discussing some of the well-established and potential benefits, including lung cancer (LC)-related mortality reduction and opportunity for smoking cessation interventions, as well as the disadvantages of LCS, such as overdiagnosis and overtreatment. Clinical relevance statement Different perspectives are provided on LCS based on the updated literature. Key Points Lung cancer is a leading cancer-related cause of death and screening should reduce associated mortality. This review summarizes current evidence related to LCS. Several aspects need to be implemented to optimize benefits and minimize potential drawbacks of LCS.
