Challenges and Limitations of Virtual Reality in Medicine
- Cost is a major challenge for smaller medical facilities to invest in high-end VR headsets and software.
- Specialized Training is needed for medical professionals to properly use and interpret virtual reality data.
- Disorientation can occur due to the immersive nature of virtual reality, leading to motion sickness or other adverse effects.
- Lack of Standardization across different VR platforms can make it difficult to share data across different facilities or incorporate data from different sources.
- Privacy Concerns may arise as virtual reality technology becomes more advanced and potentially compromises patient privacy.
- Cannot Replace Face-to-Face Interactions as virtual reality can only supplement, not replace, the human connection that is important in healthcare.
