The path to market and to a meaningful impact on care delivery for medical extended reality (MXR) is challenging, due to
limitations with current display technologies and as the MXR approach is far away from the traditional practice of medicine and the
daily experience of most patients or healthcare providers. Focused conferences, which bring together all stakeholders for free
communication and the brainstorming of optimal approaches to design, validation, and regulatory approval are important and are
being organized by the clinician-enthusiast and developer community. These conferences and the community spirit they inspire
are models for other digital health subdomains.
