AB  - Sanal gerçeklik, bilgisayar tarafından oluşturulan simüle edilmiş bir ortama, kullanıcıları taşıyan teknoloji ve deneyim türüdür. Kullanıcıyı gerçek dünyadan soyutlayarak bilgisayar ile oluşturulmuş ortamda duyusal bir deneyim sunmaktadır. Sanal gerçeklik eğlence, eğitim, sağlık, askeri, mühendislik ve birçok farklı endüstrinin çeşitli alanlarında kullanılmaktadır. Sanal gerçeklik uygulamaları sağlık alanında sürekli olarak gelişen bir teknoloji olup, kullanım alanları genişlemeye devam etmektedir. Sağlık alanında terapi ve rehabilitasyon, cerrahi planlama ve eğitim, hastaneye yatış, ağrı yönetimi, kemoterapi alan kanserli hastalara destek, yeme bozuklukları, eğitim ve simülasyon, anksiyete bozukluklarının tedavisi, diş hekimliği klinik uygulamaları gibi birçok farklı uygulama ve kullanım alanına sahiptir. Sanal gerçeklik simülasyonları, yeni becerilerin öğrenilmesi ve mevcut yeteneklerin güncellenmesi için etkili bir araçtır; aynı zamanda hastaların tedavi süreçlerinde duygusal faktörleri, özellikle endişe ve korku gibi duygusal zorlukları hafifletmede yardımcı olmaktadır. Sanal gerçeklik kullanılarak hastalar için sakinleştirici bir atmosfer oluşturulabilir ve tedaviye olan uyumlarını arttırılabilir. Ayrıca, görsel ve işitsel simülasyonlar aracılığıyla ağrıyı azaltabilir, bu da tedavi sürecini daha hoş bir deneyime dönüştürebilir. Bu teknoloji, hastalara daha etkili ve kişiselleştirilmiş bir tedavi sağlama potansiyeli taşımaktadır. Bu derlemede, sağlık alanında kullanılabilen sanal gerçeklik uygulamalarını sunmak amaçlanmaktadır.

N2  - Virtual reality is a type of technology and experience that immerses users in a computer-generated simulated environment. By isolating users from the real world, it provides a sensory experience within a digitally created setting. Virtual reality is utilized across various industries, including entertainment, education, healthcare, military, and engineering, among many others. In the healthcare sector, virtual reality applications are continuously evolving, with an expanding range of uses. It plays a significant role in areas such as therapy and rehabilitation, surgical planning and training, hospitalization, pain management, support for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, eating disorders, education and simulation, treatment of anxiety disorders, and clinical applications in dentistry. Virtual reality simulations serve as an effective tool for acquiring new skills and updating existing ones. Additionally, they help alleviate emotional challenges in patients, such as anxiety and fear, during treatment processes. By using virtual reality, a calming atmosphere can be created for patients, enhancing their compliance with treatment. Moreover, visual and auditory simulations can reduce pain, making the treatment process a more pleasant experience. This technology holds great potential for providing patients with more effective and personalized treatment. This review aims to present various virtual reality applications used in the healthcare field.
