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.
