解剖学教育是医学生课程的重要组成部分，对于外科医生来说，进行安全的手术至关重要。鼻窦腔的解剖很复杂，不容易通过身体解剖练习和阅读外科解剖学教科书来理解。因此，开发有效地教授这种复杂结构的解剖学的方法对于进行安全的医疗程序是至关重要的。本研究旨在探讨虚拟现实(VR)技术在鼻窦解剖教学中的应用是否有助于提高对复杂鼻窦解剖的理解和学习效率。我们设计了一个系统，通过使用鼻窦的计算机断层图像对鼻窦腔的形状进行多边形化，在VR空间中观察副鼻窦。医学生在VR空间中走动，使用VR系统从不同的角度观察鼻窦；值得注意的是，这在传统的解剖实验室是不可能的。对27名医学生(男15名，女12名；平均年龄24.9岁)进行了问卷调查，以评估他们对鼻窦解剖的了解程度，以及他们体验过VR和使用VR系统的次数。我们发现，超过70%的学生以前从未使用过VR，但即使不熟悉VR系统的操作，他们也可以轻松使用，学习过程愉快而高效。因此，VR应用可以成为医学生教育的有用工具。
Anatomy education is a crucial part of the curriculum for medical students, and it is essential for surgeons to perform safe surgery. The anatomy of the sinus cavity is complicated and cannot be easily understood through cadaver dissection practice and reading of surgical anatomy textbooks. Therefore, the development of methods to effectively teach the anatomy of such complex structures is essential for performing safe medical procedures. This study aimed to investigate whether the use of virtual reality (VR) in an educational course on paranasal sinus anatomy could contribute to the understanding and learning efficiency of dissection of the complex sinus anatomy. We devised a system to observe the paranasal sinuses in the VR space by polygonizing the shape of the sinus cavity using computed tomography images of the sinuses. Medical students moved around the VR space and viewed the sinuses from different angles using the VR system; notably, this is impossible in a conventional anatomy laboratory. A questionnaire was administered to 27 medical students (15 men and 12 women; mean age, 24.9 years) to evaluate their understanding of the sinus anatomy and the number of times they had experienced VR and used VR systems. We found that more than 70% of the students had never used VR before, but they could easily use it even if they were unfamiliar with the operation of the VR system, and the learning process was enjoyable and efficient. Thus, the VR application could be a useful tool for educating medical students.
