Overview
In the era of digital transformation, healthcare is one of the most impacted sectors—undergoing a true revolution driven by the adoption of Web3 and XR (Extended Reality) technologies.
The combined use of XR, Web3, AI, IoT, and Digital Twin technologies not only promises to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of medical care but also introduces new ways for doctors and patients to interact, while ensuring unprecedented levels of data security.
The integration of these innovative solutions is redefining treatment and training in the healthcare sector, delivering tangible benefits for both professionals and patients.
Value proposition
- Improved accuracy in diagnoses and procedures: XR technologies allow for detailed visualization and simulation of complex medical conditions.
- Guaranteed data security: Blockchain (Web3) ensures transparent, secure, and compliant management of sensitive data.
- Enhanced interaction between healthcare professionals and patients: AI-powered avatars enable conversational simulations that improve the quality of patient-provider interactions.
- Reduced costs and time: AI-driven solutions and Digital Twins support more accurate diagnoses, optimized medical procedures, and lower operational costs.
- A more inclusive culture: Immersive awareness programs focused on Diversity & Inclusion (D&I).
Use Case: surgical training
Virtual reality combined with blockchain-based data management.
Main features
- XR-Assisted Diagnosis: use of virtual reality to provide detailed visualizations of the patient’s anatomy.
- Data Management with Blockchain: secure system for managing and sharing medical records.
- Interoperability: ease of integration with existing systems in the healthcare sector.
How it works
-
A virtual reality platform is used to simulate detailed surgical procedures. Users wear VR headsets and utilize adapted tools that replicate the tactile sensations of real surgical instruments, allowing them to practice specific procedures. This type of training is particularly valuable in highly specialized and complex fields, such as neurosurgery or cardiac surgery.
-
At the same time, the data generated during these training sessions is recorded and managed through a blockchain-based platform. This ensures that student progress and assessments remain tamper-proof, secure, and easily accessible for future review. Blockchain also enables the secure sharing of this information between institutions, without the risk of data tampering or loss.
Benefits
- Improved Training Quality: students can repeat procedures as many times as needed without costly physical resources or risks to patient safety.
- Reliable Certification and Tracking: every stage of the user’s training is tracked and certified using blockchain, ensuring a reliable record of the skills acquired.
- Interoperability and Data Sharing: training data can be shared among hospitals, universities, and institutions without compromising its integrity.
