Метою даного дослідження було проведення аналізу наукових відомостей щодо використання віртуальних технологій та технологій доповненої реальності в практичній діяльності лікарів. Основні результати дослідження показали, що віртуальна та доповнена реальність активно трансформують медичну сферу, пропонуючи нові можливості для покращення якості надання медичних послуг. Зокрема, ці технології ефективно застосовуються в стоматології для лікування і протезування, в офтальмології – для діагностики та тренування зору, а також в психіатрії та психологічній допомозі – для терапії фобій, посттравматичних стресових розладів (ПТСР) та боротьби з тривогою. Крім того, технології VR та АR довели свою ефективність в реабілітації пацієнтів після інсультів, черепно-мозкових травм, а також при відновленні рухових функцій після ортопедичних операцій та ампутацій. Особливо слід виділити роль VR та AR технологій у плануванні складних операцій, де вони дозволяють хірургам попередньо моделювати втручання та отримувати візуальні підказки в реальному часі, знижуючи травматичність операцій і підвищуючи їх ефективність. У реабілітаційних програмах VR та AR стають незамінними інструментами для фізичної та когнітивної реабілітації пацієнтів, забезпечуючи ефективні методи відновлення рухових і пізнавальних функцій. Важливим аспектом є також використання VR та AR для навчання медичних працівників, що дозволяє тренуватися в умовах, наближених до реальних, без ризику для пацієнтів, тим самим підвищуючи рівень професійної підготовки лікарів. Проведений огляд не тільки показав, як віртуальні інструменти можна використовувати для розв’язання конкретних проблем у медицині, а й спонукає до глибшого проникнення у сутність процесів, які відбуваються в сфері охорони здоров’я під впливом новітніх інформаційно-комунікаційних розробок
