VR
for Cancer Patients
Innovative Technologies for Support and Recovery
Problem
A cancer diagnosis presents not only physical but also severe psychological challenges:
This lowers treatment effectiveness, reduces quality of life, and increases pressure on doctors, psychologists, and families.
Up to 70% of cancer patients experience anxiety and depressive disorders
Pain perception is intensified by stress, worsening the treatment experience
Patients often lose their sense of control, experiencing fear of procedures and uncertainty about the future
Relatives are also prone to emotional burnout and stress
