Feasibility of Using the Apple Vision Pro for Diagnostic Radiology: User Experience and Perceived Clinical Utility.
Article in Journal of imaging informatics in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
To assess the feasibility and user experience of spatial computing with Apple Vision Pro (AVP) in medical imaging radiology education. This prospective observational pilot study, approved by the Institutional Review Board and HIPAA-compliant, was conducted at a multisite academic medical center from January to March 2025. Twenty-five radiology physicians (22 diagnostic radiology residents, 2 neuroradiology fellows, 1 neuroradiology attending) participated. After a 5-min setup, participants engaged in a combined structured and self-guided trial of the AVP for clinical applications such as image viewing and electronic health record navigation. Participants completed pre-use and post-use surveys to assess user familiarity, comfort, and perceived utility using 5-point Likert scales. Matched responses were analyzed with Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. Timing data for onboarding and total session duration were recorded. Mean time to device competency was 4.0 ± 1.37 min, and average session time was 14.1 ± 4.94 min. Significant pre-to-post improvements were observed in perceived utility for multidisciplinary conferences (p = 0.039). The majority rated overall experience and ease of use ≥ 4/5 post-use. Eye strain occurred in 12%; no users reported nausea. Most participants cited ease of use (84%) and efficiency (80%) as key factors influencing future adoption. In this small-scale pilot, the AVP demonstrated strong short-term feasibility and perceived usability for medical imaging among surveyed physician trainees. Results support further investigation of spatial computing in other clinical workflows and medical imaging education.
