Why Holomedicine Is Rapidly Gaining Ground

Medical holography has emerged as one of the most promising applications in the medical industry. Holographic imaging technology is advancing healthcare, life sciences, biomedical research as well as medical training and education. Mixed Reality (MR) applications are gradually making a progressive impact on healthcare deliveries with precise quantitative measurement of human internal anatomy elements in 3D holograms geometries displayed in actual physical space. Holographic 3D technology renders medical professionals with advanced diagnostic capabilities and surgical planning, by allowing them to slice virtual tissue, organs, and other body parts at various angles. Holomedicne advances access to percutaneous procedures without invasive needle techniques. Surgeons across the world are now curious to explore medical holograms to enhance the efficiency of complex surgeries.

Typically, conventional 3D (3-Dimensional) imaging technologies are not able to create a truly accurate 3D rendition. Actually, these are 2D images gathered from MRI, CT scanner, ultrasound, and other devices, stitched together to create a rough 3D image. Furthermore, it is extremely laborious and time-consuming to create 3D visualisations from these 2D images. Treatment and diagnostic decisions based on these images are rather challenging, plus their accuracy is often questionable. As a solution to these challenges, novel revolutionary medical holography technology renders 2D images into 3D floating projections applying Mixed Reality (MR), a blend of physical and digital worlds, which unlocks natural and intuitive holograms through 3D interactions.

In contrast to AR/VR, in MR the real environment remains visible at all times and the holograms appear in the real space passing through a holographic device. This enables medical professionals to zoom in and zoom out the magnified 3D hologram of an organ/tissue under study. These visuals are indistinguishable in a conventional scanning procedure and thus holograms make treatments and surgeries a seamless effort with live explicit interactions.

Trends and opportunities in the medical holography market:

The clinical application of holography is thriving with the rising adoption of health-tech products in the life science and healthcare sector. The holography products can range from holography displays, holography microscopes, holography prints, holography software and devices, holographic headsets, and holoscopes.
