EXR: An Interactive Immersive EHR Visualization in Extended Reality
This addresses the problem of limited EHR visualization for healthcare professionals by providing an immersive interface, though it appears incremental as an extension of existing XR and data integration approaches.
The paper tackles the problem of visualizing Electronic Health Records (EHRs) by developing an Extended Reality (XR) platform that transforms structured and unstructured patient data into a shared 3D environment, enabling intuitive exploration and real-time collaboration. The result is a modular system demonstrated with synthetic EHR datasets and AI-processed CT spine models, suggesting it could form the foundation for next-generation clinical decision-support tools.
This paper presents the design and implementation of an Extended Reality (XR) platform for immersive, interactive visualization of Electronic Health Records (EHRs). The system extends beyond conventional 2D interfaces by visualizing both structured and unstructured patient data into a shared 3D environment, enabling intuitive exploration and real-time collaboration. The modular infrastructure integrates FHIR-based EHR data with volumetric medical imaging and AI-generated segmentation, ensuring interoperability with modern healthcare systems. The platform's capabilities are demonstrated using synthetic EHR datasets and computed tomography (CT)-derived spine models processed through an AI-powered segmentation pipeline. This work suggests that such integrated XR solutions could form the foundation for next-generation clinical decision-support tools, where advanced data infrastructures are directly accessible in an interactive and spatially rich environment.
