Synopsis
Keywords: Software Tools, Simulations, EducationAccess to MRI in low-resource regions is often limited by the lack of local expertise required to sustain long-term MR operation. To help develop interest and understanding in a wider audience from a younger age, we developed Virtual Scanner Games. This web application can be distributed by USBs to run locally and provides eight educational interactive games to introduce MR fundamentals to students at the high school level or higher.
