A Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy System Applying Virtual Reality Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
A VR-MVF system was developed and used for the treatment of CRPS at the Okayama University Hospital. Preliminary results from applying this system in patients showed that VR-MVF therapy may be plausible for CRPS treatment. The effects of VR-MVF therapy, however, may be enhanced by increasing the frequency of treatments. Thus, a remote personal VR-MVF system was designed for future implementation, and a prototype personal VR-MVF system was developed. Patient evaluation of the prototype system by the PQ test shows the feasibility of our VR system for CRPS treatment.
