Integrating TotalSegmentator into Your WorkflowOne question we hear often is how to integrate TotalSegmentator into medical imaging workflows. This powerful open-source tool breaks segmentation into “tasks,” with each task calling one or more nnUNet models. Running all models can be overkill if you only need a few specific structures segmented wasting both time and resources. That’s why it’s crucial to understand which tasks call which models and choose only what you need. In our projects, we don’t just install TotalSegmentator “as is.” We usually fork the repo, optimize inference speed, and deploy a custom version tailored to the client’s workflow. This approach saves computation time, reduces costs, and ensures smooth integration with existing systems. ​ Virtual Reality Is Transforming HealthcareVirtual reality (VR) is finding its place in clinics, classrooms, and even operating rooms. From streaming live surgeries for global training to helping patients relax during stressful procedures, VR is making care more engaging and less intimidating. Early studies show VR can reduce pain and anxiety, speed up recovery in physical therapy, and even improve empathy among medical students by simulating age-related conditions. As headsets become cheaper and more accessible, expect VR to become a standard part of medical education, patient care, and rehabilitation. ​ ​
