American Medical Extended Reality Association (AMXRA)

AMXRA Grand Rounds with Brennan Spiegel, MD, MSHS starts TODAY 6PM EST! Join here: https://lnkd.in/eMERGGmY

Here’s a polished version of your LinkedIn post: “I am honored to serve as the lead editor, collaborating with my colleague and friend Dr. Jeffery Gold, for the special issue on pediatric pain management using medical extended reality, published by the Journal of Medical Extended Reality (JMXR). We invite submissions on this important topic, with a deadline of March 31, 2025.”

I took a close look at the research reports, review articles, commentary, and other resources available in the Journal of Medical Extended Reality (MXR) Such an amazing resource. A strong and well-curated journal that moves the field of clinical XR forward in a vital (and vibrant) way.  If you are active in the field of XR for healthcare, I encourage you to take a look and to share your work by submitting it for publication. https://lnkd.in/g5F3HPWB The Journal coverage includes: ·     The use of XR technologies for therapy and rehabilitation purposes ·     Use of XR in allied health science ·     MXR across the lifespan from pediatrics to geriatrics ·     XR for medical or surgical training and education ·     XR for patient education and communication ·     XR in medical imaging ·     MXR neuropsychological and biological mechanisms of action ·     MXR design, development, and clinical deployment ·     XR hardware and sensors ·     Integration of XR with AI and data analytics ·     Socio-economic and regulatory aspects of MXR ·     Ethics, safety, privacy, and adverse effects of MXR

Medical extended reality represents a transformative intersection of healthcare and immersive technologies. MXR encompasses virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, and other tech that extends or upgrades the medical experience. The roots of #MXR trace back over 40 years to early experiments with VR for psychological therapies and simulation training. Over time, as the technology advanced, MXR applications broadened, eventually gaining recognition from regulatory bodies like the FDA, marking an important milestone in the field and paving the way for integration into healthcare practices. MXR is now attracting more interest, exploration, and research, demonstrating year-over-year growth. Despite MXR's maturity beyond a nascent field, there remains a notable absence of a centralized taxonomy to categorize the diverse array of research and application areas within this domain. A well-structured taxonomy is important for facilitating clear communication and classification among different MXR participants. The American Medical Extended Reality Association (AMXRA), in partnership with the editorial board of the Journal of Medical Extended Reality, developed a novel taxonomy to help define the field of MXR. Developed by experts in the field, this taxonomy aims to standardize terminology, categorize existing work, and provide a framework for future research and development within this dynamic and rapidly evolving field. #medicalextendedreality #digitalhealth #AI #VR #AR #MR #taxonomy https://lnkd.in/gpTTpzmh
