Sponsor's own description
For many medical students, their first experience with cadaver dissection can be stressful and emotionally challenging. This study developed a 360° video-based virtual reality (VR) application to allow students to explore the anatomy lab and understand the dissection process before their first session. The study compared students who used the VR experience with those who received traditional preparation methods. It examined whether the VR tool reduced anxiety and improved students' emotional readiness before and during their first cadaver dissection. The findings aimed to determine whether this immersive technology could make the learning experience more comfortable and supportive for students
