GigXR, a global provider of holographic training solutions, has partnered with Intravision XR to introduce the DICOM XR Library. This new application offers hyper-realistic 3D medical imagery, derived from MRI and CT scans, for use in teaching, training, and simulation. By leveraging holographic medical imagery, nursing and medical schools, hospitals, and the Department of Defense can enhance their anatomy and pathophysiology curricula. The DICOM XR Library provides a comprehensive view of how pathology and injury manifest in diagnostic imaging, allowing students and professionals to better assess and diagnose patients.
The Gig Immersive Learning Platform serves as the delivery system for the DICOM XR Library. This enterprise software enables institutions to incorporate holographic content into their curricula through a custom library of complementary applications. Instructors can curate the content through the platform’s dashboard, making it easier for learners to reinforce their knowledge of general anatomy, visualize pathophysiology, replicate diagnostic processes, and evaluate test results. With the ability to view medical imaging holograms from any angle or cross-section, multiple learners can collaborate and interact with the content, regardless of their location.
GigXR’s CEO, Jared Mermey, highlights the efficacy of mixed reality training, stating that research has shown its effectiveness in healthcare education. The Gig Immersive Learning Platform allows institutions to scale their immersive simulation training using mixed reality technology. With partners like DICOM Director, 3D4Medical from Elsevier, and ANIMA RES, the platform offers a wide range of enterprise training applications. Customers from across four continents, including Kaiser Permanente School of Medicine, Miami Dade College, and The University of Queensland, trust GigXR for their immersive learning needs.
DICOM Director joins the list of third-party content partners on the Gig Immersive Learning Platform, alongside 3D4Medical and ANIMA RES. This partnership allows DICOM Director’s enterprise training applications, such as INTRAVISION XR, to be distributed through the platform. INTRAVISION XR is a cloud-based, 3D model medical software tool that enables users to visualize CT and MRI scans as holographic images in extended reality (XR) platforms.
GigXR’s flagship mixed reality applications, including HoloScenarios, HoloPatient, and HoloHuman, create safe-to-fail learning environments where medical and nursing students can practice essential skills. These simulations cover various areas such as respiratory diseases, basic life support, advanced cardiac life support, and neurology scenarios. With customers on five continents, GigXR continues to deliver innovative holographic training solutions to medical and nursing schools, hospitals, and higher education institutions.
