A systematic review of immersive educational technologies in medical physics and radiation physics.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This systematic review aims to analyze and synthesize the current state of research on the role of immersive technologies, specifically augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), in medical physics and radiation physics education. The primary focus is to evaluate their impact on learning outcomes, performance, and engagement across various educational contexts.

Methods

We conduct a comprehensive search of four major databases: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and IEEE Xplore, covering the period from 2012 to 2023. A total of 316 articles are initially identified. After removing duplicates and screening for relevance based on titles and abstracts, 107 articles are selected for full-text review. Finally, 37 articles met the inclusion criteri
