The UAE’s Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) has launched an innovative service to evaluate healthcare professionals, including doctors and allied practitioners, using the “metaverse” technology.

The 3D Digital Metaverse Assessment Service integrates the real, virtual and digital worlds, enhancing the delivery of both government and private healthcare services.

MoHAP has also unveiled a new medical thermal imaging technology, further enabling healthcare providers to utilise cutting-edge innovations.

The two new services were announced at Arab Health 2023, which is taking place at the Dubai World Trade Centre. During the launch ceremony, Dr Amin Hussein Al Amiri, assistant undersecretary for the Health Regulation Sector at MoHAP, highlighted the importance and advantages of the projects.

Evaluation of health practitioners
The 3D Digital Metaverse Assessment Service will enable the ministry to remotely evaluate health practitioners, including doctors and allied health professionals.

This service will also streamline procedures while maintaining data security through artificial intelligence (AI). It will be unique for its several key features, including transparency and secure remote assessment where AI will be used to ensure that personal data and medical certificates match during the assessment process.

Interactive digital sensory experience
This technology also monitors eye movements and analyses facial expressions for the safety of the evaluation process.

The 3D platform, which simulates a realistic assessment hall, provides clear roles and platforms for the judging committee, invigilators, and examinees.

Users can display any necessary documents during the assessment while ensuring the confidentiality and security of all related data and records.

The ministry stressed that the service will cater to customer needs by offering a 3D virtual world experience and digital sensory interaction testing, eliminating the need for physical distance.

The technology also provides a practical solution for those with disabilities, unable to visit a ministry building, and for individuals outside the country to efficiently complete their transactions.

Thermal imaging technology
As for the innovative thermal imaging technology, the ministry revealed that it will be effectively used in detecting diabetic foot inflammation for early diagnosis and monitoring surgical sites for infection risk.

It will also be used in determining psychological state through facial temperature analysis, and tracking blood vessels associated with heat-producing tumors in thermal oncology, which streamlines the process of diagnosing and monitoring patients’ conditions.

The technology, which features a small camera linked to mobile phones can be used in conjunction with imaging techniques like X-rays, ultrasound, MRI, nuclear medicine and CT scans.
