As technology advances, mobile devices have gradually turned into wearable devices, and Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) as well as Mixed Reality (MR) have been applied more and more widely. For example, VR, AR and MR are applied in the medical fields like medical education and training, surgical simulation, neurological rehabilitation, psychotherapy, and telemedicine. Related research result has proved that VR, AR and MR ameliorate inconvenience of traditional medical care, reduce medical malpractice caused by unskilled operation, and lower the cost of medical education and training. Moreover, the application has enhanced effectiveness of medical education and training, raised the level of diagnosis and treatment, improved the doctor-patient relationship, and boosted efficiency of medical execution. This study introduces VR, AR, and MR applications in medical practices and education, and aims to help health professionals know more about these applications, becoming interested to improve the quality of medical care via the technology.
