# Visualization of Medical Record with 3D Human Body Models

## TL;DR

A new web-based system uses 3D human body models to help doctors better visualize and understand patient medical records during consultations.

## Contribution

The novel integration of real-time ICD-10 code mapping with interactive 3D models in a web-based EMR system.

## Key findings

- The system received high ratings for ease of use, satisfaction, and efficiency with an average SUS score of 70.42.
- Integration of 3D models improved visualization and interactivity in medical record retrieval for healthcare professionals.

## Abstract

Background/Objectives: With the rapid development of smart healthcare, medical records have shifted from a disease-centered to a patient-centered approach. However, traditional formats, such as narratives and tables, often make it challenging for physicians to quickly grasp a patient’s condition within a limited timeframe, potentially leading to diagnostic errors and a decline in the quality of care. Recently, advances in information visualization and 3D technology have led many medical institutions to employ charts and graphs or use 3D simulations of organs to support clinical practice and education. However, few have integrated 3D models into medical records for use during physician consultations. Methods: This study presents the development and evaluation of a novel web-based 3D EMR system that integrates real-time ICD-10 diagnostic code mapping with interactive 3D human body models, enabling physicians to visualize patient-specific anatomical and diagnostic information in a dynamic and context-aware manner. Results: We employed the System Usability Scale (SUS) to evaluate the system’s usability, conducting a satisfaction survey. Results from the survey indicate that participants rated the system highly in terms of ease of use, satisfaction, and efficiency, with an average SUS score of 70.42, reflecting usability between moderate and good. Comparative evaluations and future expansion plans are also discussed. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that integrating a 3D human model into the medical record retrieval process significantly improves visualization and interactivity, meeting the needs of healthcare professionals and enhancing both their efficiency and patient satisfaction.
