“Most of the radiologists were willing to use the tool as part of their daily work routines.”
Rantamaa 2022 · Survey/user study
“Although the use of VR technology is limited for various reasons such as cost, it can increase the skills of dental professionals in performing dental implants.”
Monaghesh 2023 · Systematic review
“Critically, the current evidence base, while promising, is constrained by predominantly small sample sizes across studies, significant methodological heterogeneity hindering meta-analysis, and a paucity of robust, long-term clinical outcome data.”
