AR May Transform Battlefield Trauma Care

AR May Transform Battlefield Trauma Care

Johns Hopkins APL ⊳ Johns Hopkins APL researchers have developed an AR-assisted tool that overlays predictive anatomical maps onto patients, helping medics locate internal organs in the field. Using a statistical shape atlas and AI, this system enhances trauma care where hospitals are out of reach. Integrated ultrasound capabilities guide procedures such as diagnosing internal bleeding. Designed to improve both training and real-world response, this technology could reshape battlefield medicine and emergency care.
