The growth of global AR and VR market in the healthcare industry has been dependent on their increasing application for better patient experience, therapeutics, training of medical students, and advanced medical procedures. AR applications are compatible across various platforms including iOS, Android, and Windows and the cost of app development varies between $50,000 and $250,000, accordingly.

AR enables gathering and presentation of data in 3D format. For instance, the anatomical data of a human body is stored digitally (in a hardware or memory card), and aids in presenting the data in 3D view. The healthcare specialist can view the anatomical structures of their patients in 3D format, based on the data collected through MRI and CT scans, via an AR headset before planning the medical procedure.

VR employs computer-assisted technology to construct a simulated virtual environment. Presently, VR-based technology is dominating the market through various industries such as healthcare, education, architecture, and defense. The development costs for VR games and VR apps are very different. For the development of a VR app, the cost can range between $40,000 to $75000; and for VR games, the cost ranges from $50,000 to $100,000.

With the expansion in therapeutic imaging activities, oncology experts are also embracing computerized-reality advancements such as AR and VR.  For instance, VR enables specialists and doctors to view precise images of body structures without invasive methods, making diagnostics an easy process also for the patients. Moreover, AR can be utilized for amplified imaging of tumor during chemotherapy.

According to Swarup Chakrabarty, Analyst at BIS Research, "North America held the largest share of the market in 2018 and accounted for over 44.08% of the revenue share owing to huge investments made by public and private companies for the adoption of innovative solutions, such as AR and VR. However, Asia-Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing market and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 33.6% from 2018 to 2025 ."

Research Highlights:

• With innovations in AR and VR, and in the application of these technologies in healthcare market, the chance of surgical error reduces significantly. Currently, numerous healthcare organizations have been building up a virtual reality framework. For instance, Fundamental VR has built up a framework for knee replacement medical procedure, enabling doctors to rehearse how to infuse sedatives during the medical procedure accurately.
• Navigation is an important element of surgeries, which includes a real-time view of high-quality pictures with the help of head-mounted displays. For example, DXC technology is investing in research in the field of AR & VR for 3D images, head-tracking capability, and joystick interface.    
• Virtual reality exposure therapy (VERT) is one of the new-age technologies where VR can be applied to exposure therapy, one of the most prominent therapeutics for treating mental illness such as anxiety disorders and for treating remotely-located patients.
• VR technology has also been found useful in detecting a patient's level of comfort before surgery, which could be helpful during the surgical process. Canada-based anesthetist, Dr. Fahad Alam applied VR for learning the intensity of the patient's nervousness before surgery with the help of 360-degree cameras. Dr. Alam and his research team at the University of Toronto created a virtual experience to understand how the patient feels before surgical procedures.
