Radio Anatomical Interactive Library.
The first national-scale database of pathologies and case studies for education and training.
The Project
What is RAIL?
Radio Anatomical Interactive Library (RAIL) is designed to revolutionize medical education by significantly reducing costs through the in-house 3D printing and simulation of anatomical components. By avoiding the expense of purchasing simulation models from overseas companies, RAIL makes simulation-based and XR-enhanced education more accessible and affordable. The initiative focuses on four key objectives:
- Creation of the Radio Anatomical Interactive Library (RAIL): the project aims to create a comprehensive library of MRI and CT data from various body regions, including complex and pathological cases, providing detailed 3D views of the human body. The process includes developing scanning protocols, collecting and segmenting data, and creating 3D anatomical models.
- Development of XR Facilities: RAIL will integrate an immersive extended reality (XR) environment with custom software, allowing users to interact with virtual anatomical models. This tool introduces innovative teaching methods, enabling educators to create customized modules based on the Atlas. These modules will facilitate the exploration of anatomical structures, study of pathological conditions, and performance of quantitative measurements for an enhanced learning experience.
- Portable Access to Anatomical Models: RAIL will develop a system enabling access to anatomical content on personal laptops and mobile devices. This portable solution ensures that students and healthcare professionals can carry essential knowledge with them, consulting it anytime, anywhere.
- Development of 3D-Printed Training Models: RAIL utilizes medical imaging, segmentation tools, and digital anatomy technologies to create customizable synthetic anatomical models. These models provide hands-on preclinical training for students, enhancing their skills before real-world applications, while also supporting medical experts in clinical procedures and surgical planning.
