Abstract

The metaverse is a virtual, interlinked digital world where users can connect, socialise, and participate in numerous activities using virtual, augmented, and other innovative technologies. It is a phrase borrowed from science fiction recently gaining popularity in the information and technology sector. It's a sizable, shared, 3D virtual environment that illustrates a collective, shared online space that stretches beyond traditional internet experiences. The chapter explores and investigates how immersive technologies, such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and others, might improve several facets of healthcare and make it more intelligent, effective, and patient-centred.
