Improve lab efficiency
Managing energized simulation labs in radiologic technology programs can be inefficient due to limited access, time constraints, and supervision challenges. VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator addresses these issues by offering flexible, virtual training opportunities through VR and Desktop modalities. This approach reduces bottlenecks, maximizes lab resources, and ensures students receive consistent hands-on practice, improving engagement, pass rates, and skill retention.
Ensuring that all students get access to sufficient training in the institution’s energized simulation lab(s) is a significant challenge in radiologic technology programs. Issues like risks of radiation, time limits, tight schedules, and the hurdles of providing in-person supervision, can lead to bottlenecks and missed opportunities for practice and skill development. Poor lab efficiency might result in lower student engagement and confidence if students feel they are not receiving sufficient hands-on learning experiences.
This is where VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator provides better lab efficiency by offering more opportunities for hands-on practice.
VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator is a virtual energized X-ray lab that recreates the experience of working in a real-world X-ray lab. Access the simulation through two modalities: Virtual Reality (VR), that provides a fully immersive environment using goggles for visuals and controllers for hand interaction, and Desktop, an accessible format available on student or institution computers.
By shifting parts of training to a virtual simulation environment, programs can maximize resources and resolve bottlenecks by easing the burden on physical labs and equipment, reserving them for essential activities that require in-person supervision.
*based on 4 virtual labs. Choose the amounts of virtual labs for your training needs to scale training capacity accordingly.
Students can use the VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator to practice independently, allowing instructors to focus on advanced training and complex problem-solving during in-person lab sessions.
With accessible practice opportunities, students can practice at their own convenience in their own time, creating additional opportunities for personalized, hands-on practice, without the limitations of traditional simulation lab training.
VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator aims to support the education of skilled radiographers of the future with an innovative approach through our two modalities: VR and Desktop.
Both modalities empower students to go beyond textbooks by practicing skills such as tube positioning, patient alignment, and selecting the appropriate technique in a safe and radiation-free environment.
Institutions using VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator to improve lab efficiency also experience improvements in key areas such as student engagement, skill retention and pass rates. By offering opportunities for more hands-on practice in a virtual environment, students are better prepared for clinical rotations, which positively impacts both their confidence levels and skill retention. As a result, students are more likely to succeed in their programs, leading to the development of highly skilled radiologic technologists of the future.
Discover how VitaSim’s X-Ray Simulator can transform your radiography program and enhance student engagement like never before.
