Bridging traditional gaps in medical training with mixed reality: insights from bronchoscopy education-a narrative review.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

Medical education is undergoing a digital and intelligent revolution. Traditional bronchoscopy training methods have limitations in skill acquisition and anatomical comprehension. Mixed reality (MR), a technology that combines virtual and real environments for interactive learning, provides an innovative solution. This study reviews the current status and challenges of bronchoscopy training, highlighting the application potential of MR technology.

Methods

The search strategy included literature from 2000 to 2025 in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI).
