Virtual Reality Applications in Healthcare U.S. Market

The use of virtual reality (VR) technologies in the healthcare field is not simply a far-away future possibility. Technologies are already in place and the benefits from the application of VR are already evident in the healthcare domain. These applications provide doctors an opportunity to perform tasks in a risk-free environment, and make training accessible for a large number of students as the apprenticeship of experienced doctors is not necessary. Additionally, VR simulators allow medical professionals to remain abreast with the latest technical procedures required in the profession.

Kalorama Information's Virtual Reality Applications in Healthcare: U.S. Market looks at the realistic market for these technologies as divided on the basis of four application areas:

Surgery, including pre-operative planning, Assisted surgery and Remote Surgery.

Education and Training, including Training of Physicians and Certifying Experienced Physicians.

Rehabilitation and Therapy, including Psychological Therapy and Pain Distraction

Visualization of Medical Data including Diagnostic Tools, 3 D modeling and Remote Collaboration.

For each segment, the report details current market size, growth factors and trends, and forecasts to 2010. Additionally, this report contains a complete demand-side analysis demonstrating the drivers for VR applications in the following customer areas:
