OBJECTIVE: Virtual reality (VR) objects of fetal ultrasound volumes have been proposed for teaching and learning diagnostic ultrasound. The aim of this study was to determine if VR objects improve learning efficiency and retention of diagnostic ability in fetal ultrasound. METHODS: Medical students and junior doctors were taught normal and abnormal sonographic fetal brain anatomy using conventional means (video lectures and review articles; control group) or additionally with selected VR objects from a novel fetal brain atlas (Pocket Brain, http://pb.fetal.ch; study group). Knowledge, speed of recognition and retention of diagnostic ability were tested in multiple-choice questionnaires 1 and 4 months after teaching, and the results were compared between those taught using conventional means only and those taught using VR objects. RESULTS: Participants taught using VR objects answered significantly more questions correctly and solved the tests quicker than those taught using conventional methods only, both 1 and 4 months after teaching. CONCLUSION: The use of VR objects in teaching fetal ultrasound significantly improves learning efficiency and knowledge retention. Copyright © 2018 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE: The purpose of these Guidelines is to review the published techniques of ultrasound in labor and their practical applications, to summarize the level of evidence regarding the use of ultrasound in labor and to provide guidance to practitioners on when ultrasound in labor is clinically indicated and how the sonographic findings may affect labor management. We do not imply or suggest that ultrasound in labor is a necessary standard of care.
