In a first, an Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology student has made it possible to view CT and MRI images in a virtual reality environment through a software application.
The new application, developed by IIIT-D final year B.Tech student Palash Bansal would greatly facilitate the works of medical community, which has been constrained till date to view these images only in two dimensions on computer screens.
Started as a research project, the new software application has now been packaged by Bansal as a business model.
Explaining the outcome of his project, Bansal told PTI, "We have been able to take high-quality photos of the human body through MRI and CT scans for decades. These images enabled doctors to perform less invasive diagnostics on patients in less amount of time."
