A VR neurointerventional setup for catheter-based interventions focusing on visualizing the risk of radiation.

Interventional neuroradiologists carry out their minimally-invasive procedure by using X-rays within the setup of a Bi-plane Digital Subtraction Angiography. This work provides an immersive virtual reality (VR) environment where the physicians can perform an simulated catheter-based intervention. Since radiation is invisible, the risk of radiation exposure can be enhanced virtually.

A teaching concept for school experiments on radioactivity using augmented reality methods.

Digital media are becoming increasingly influential in society, especially among the younger generation. Therefore, an augmented reality (AR) app was developed that simulates experiments with radioactive sources. The app runs experiments on the range and penetration power of alpha, beta and gamma radiation.
