<h1>Background:</h1>
67+
<h3>Medical ultrasound education, particularly in echocardiography, is traditionally hands-on and instructor-intensive. However, limited access to real-time scanning experience and expert feedback constrains student learning and standardization of training.</h3>
68+
<h3>Virtual Reality (VR) offers a powerful medium to simulate realistic echocardiographic scenarios, enhancing spatial awareness, probe handling skills, and interpretation in a controlled, repeatable environment.</h3>
69+
70+
<h1>Research Questions:</h1>
71+
<h3>- How can immersive VR technologies be used to simulate realistic echocardiographic scanning environments?</h3>
72+
<h3>- What levels of realism and interactivity are necessary to foster clinical competence?</h3>
73+
<h3>- How can adaptive feedback and AI-driven assessment enhance learning outcomes?</h3>
74+
75+
<h1>Aim and Objectives:</h1>
76+
<h3>This PhD project aims to design, develop, and evaluate a VR-based training platform for echocardiography education. The specific objectives are to:</h3>
77+
<h3>- Develop a fully interactive VR training environment using real echocardiographic data.</h3>
78+
<h3>- Incorporate simulated probe manipulation and anatomical navigation.</h3>
79+
<h3>- Integrate real-time assessment and feedback mechanisms for learners.</h3>
80+
<h3>- Evaluate the effectiveness of the platform in educational settings, including postgraduate training courses.</h3>
81+
82+
<h1>Methodology:</h1>
83+
<h3>- Co-design the platform with input from clinical educators and sonographers.</h3>
84+
<h3>- Use Unity3D and haptic feedback integration for realism.</h3>
85+
<h3>- Capture and map ultrasound probe trajectories to VR scenes.</h3>
86+
<h3>- Conduct usability studies and learning outcome evaluations with students enrolled in programmes such as <a href="https://www.imperial.ac.uk/study/courses/postgraduate-taught/medical-ultrasound-echocardiography/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">MSc in Medical Ultrasound (Echocardiography)</a>.</h3>
87+
88+
<h1>Clinical Partners:</h1>
89+
<h3>This project is supported by cardiology and echocardiography teams at Imperial College London and affiliated NHS hospitals, offering access to training resources and expert feedback.</h3>
