What if medical trainees could learn complex procedures or practice emergency responses in realistic simulations, without needing to perform them on actual patients or in risky clinical settings?

A recent commentary article by Dr. Mark Mohan Kaggwa, Precious Agboinghale, Diana Marginean, Dr. Gary Andrew Chaimowitz, and Dr. Andrew Toyin Olagunju explores how VR can transform medical training and prepare learners for complex, real-world scenarios.
