DOCSF 2023: DOCSF Science - Virtual PT and Sensors

In this insightful episode, join Fabrizio Billi, Louis Rosenberg, Cory Calendine, and Peter Schilling as they delve into groundbreaking research on augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) in healthcare. The first paper introduces an innovative virtual reality concept integrating force feedback to elevate precision and safety in surgical procedures. The findings underscore that avatars featuring realistic hands outperform those with mere hand outlines.The second paper illuminates the deployment of digital twins to avert collisions between devices within the operating room. Through a comparative study of control methods involving joysticks and buttons, the research reveals buttons as the more efficient device controllers.Throughout the panel, our esteemed guest speakers offer their invaluable insights and perspectives on these transformative technologies. They underscore the paramount importance of user-centric approaches and an open-minded stance in the development of AR and VR solutions for the healthcare domain. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that unveils the potential and challenges of AR and VR in shaping the future of healthcare.

The Digital Orthopaedics Conference San Francisco (DOCSF) was created to bridge the worlds of digital health and clinical orthopaedics and thereby catalyze the adoption of technology in musculoskeletal care. This podcast series features key speakers and highlights from the live event. Why orthopaedics? We believe that embedding digital technologies in a narrow integrated vertical is more likely to affect change than targeting one-fifth of the U.S. economy. We also believe that if a conference is to move the ball forward, it needs to target leaders who are positioned to drive change. These leaders want a conference that is practical, identifies solutions to real problems, and that provides perspective from people outside their normal circle. To this end, we invite Health Care, Industry, Finance, Entrepreneurs and Payers to participate. The DOCSF program design uses many educational formats including ‘case studies’ to illustrate success and a broad panel of experts to ask tough questions. And because change does not happen in a vacuum, we include leadership, policy and design segments in the program. Find out more, and register for our next conference, by visiting docsf.health.
