Abstract
BackgroundMixed reality devices have made a big impact on the medical profession by creating a virtual world. Visual perception methods and 3D Touch can be used in teaching institutions to impart knowledge and help perform plastic surgery easilyMethodsThis study has been done to evaluate the systematic review and merits of Augmented Reality technology in plastic surgery for 3 years in the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery in All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh using PubMed Ovid and Google Scholar. This is a scoping review to compare the advent and utility of mixed reality platforms in plastic surgery in the world by searching the PubMed database.ResultsThe records of 55 articles could be retrieved in plastic surgery from Pubmed and Ovid database.26 were review articles,10 were on haptic devices,3 on 3D printing,15 case reports, and one RCT. Haptic devices are a part of training skills such as bone drilling, burring, and cutting. Education is enhanced by virtual reality platforms incorporating learning soft tissue skills with haptic devicesConclusionTechnological advancement in imaging modalities provides a convenient way of teaching anatomy, mapping of perforators to design flaps, and perform virtual osteotomies. Virtual consoles can be designed to teach endoscopic plastic surgery with 3D scanning.
