The most commonly applied way of teaching students to convey the foundations of human anatomy and physiology involves textbooks and lectures. This way of transmitting knowledge causes difficulties for students, especially in the context of three-dimensional imaging of organ structures, and as a consequence translates into difficulties with imagining them. Even despite the rapid uptake of knowledge dissemination provided by online materials, including courses and webinars, there is a clear need for learning programs featuring first-hand immersive experiences tailored to suit individual study paces. In this paper, we present an approach to enhance a classical study program by combining multi-modality data and representing them in a Mixed Reality (MR)-based environment. The advantages of the proposed approach have been proven by the conducted investigation of the relationship between atrial anatomy, its electrophysiological characteristics, and resulting P wave morphology on the electrocardiogram (ECG). Another part of the paper focuses on the role of the sinoatrial node in ECG formation, while the MR-based visualization of combined micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) data with non-invasive CineECG imaging demonstrates the educational application of these advanced technologies for teaching cardiac anatomy and ECG correlations. |
