JMIR XR and Spatial Computing

Aims & Scope

JMIR XR and Spatial Computing (JMXR) is a pioneering open access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing innovative and impactful research on extended reality (XR) and spatial computing technologies, including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), within the health care and medical sectors.

The journal's open access format facilitates interdisciplinary collaboration, bridging the gap between health care professionals and technologists in industry and academia. By consolidating key advancements in this multifaceted domain, JMIR XR and Spatial Computing emerges as a premier platform for impactful contributions in the field of medical XR and spatial computing.

We welcome innovative research and clinical applications, including but not limited to:

• Clinical application of XR and spatial computing alone or in combination with advanced wearables and sensor technologies
• Clinical trials testing the efficacy of extended reality and spatial computing software and hardware for therapeutic and diagnostic applications
• Exploration, evaluation, and clinical integration of AI-powered medical XR and spatial computing applications
• The influence of XR and spatial reality technologies on digital transformation in clinical practices and informatics
• The role of XR in establishing virtual care models for remote patient care, medical collaboration, remote therapeutic interventions, and virtual medical training of patients and health care workers
• Ethical, regulatory, and security issues in the application of medical XR and spatial computing
• The creation and application of digital twins in medicine based on XR technologies
• Development of digital biomarkers through the use of XR hardware and software
• Utilization and impact of XR and spatial computing in streamlining administrative processes and health care service delivery
• Economic implications and cost-effectiveness of implementing XR and spatial computing in health care systems
