Extended Reality (XR) for medical use cases is proving to be beneficial to both patients and healthcare professionals as well as all other stakeholders throughout the healthcare industry.

This report highlights the need for an ethical framework that is evolved from best practices throughout medical and technological fields to help ensure safe and equitable usage of the technology.
