Gartner named the metaverse as one of its top 10 strategic technologies in 2019 and again in 2023, with a focus on accelerating strategies to capitalize on emerging virtual markets [10]. In 2022, Gartner also predicted that by 2026, 25% of people worldwide will spend at least 1 hour a day in the metaverse [11]. Use of the metaverse overcomes physical and time constraints and improves accessibility for both patients and health care providers and, once deployed, is repeatable.

Recently, the technology of the metaverse, defined as internet-connected social digital environments that allow end users to interact as avatars, has been adopted to facilitate digital mental health interventions delivered by humans [25]. The metaverse can transport an individual into a personalized 3 D digital world that promotes immersion, the extent to which an individual perceives, experiences, and interacts with a digital environment as if it were a real environment [26].

Metaverse Clinic for Pregnant Women With Subclinical Hypothyroidism: Prospective Randomized Study
Participants in the metaverse group only visited the hospital for enrollment, blood tests, and required pregnancy assessments. Follow-ups for the metaverse group were conducted through the platform, with medications delivered to their homes. The metaverse platform enabled secure communication between participants and investigators at any time, enhancing adherence to treatment protocols. Technical support was provided, with hardware promptly replaced if issues could not be resolved remotely.

Recently, there has been significant development in the technology of the metaverse and its implications for the future of health care [1,2]. The metaverse, a collection of enduring, interoperable 3 D virtual worlds in which people interact with each other and the environment using virtual avatars [3], shows promise as a platform for mental health interventions for several reasons.

Online education stands as one of the potential application areas of the metaverse. The metaverse, which is an immersive, 3 D, computer-based, and multiuser online environment, serves as an optimal platform for orchestrating multiplayer training sessions [17,18]. The metaverse merges the physical and computer-based environments by integrating the internet, the web, mixed reality, augmented reality, and VR [10].

The Second Life Metaverse and Its Usefulness in Medical Education After a Quarter of a Century
The term metaverse has gained great popularity recently (Figure 1) after Mark Zuckerberg, chief executive officer of the social network Facebook, announced in October 2021 his company’s interest in developing the metaverse as a social environment, apparently as an area of interaction and commercial transactions. As a result, there is currently a growing interest in all matters related to the metaverse; virtual worlds; and their applicability to today’s society, including education.

Factors Associated With Continuous Use of a Cancer Education Metaverse Platform: Mixed Methods Study
Meta metaverse platform’s need for content variety. We developed a multipurpose metaverse digital cancer care platform, Dr. Meta, at NCC Korea in 2021, supported by the Republic of Korea’s Ministry of Science and ICT [11]. The Dr. Meta metaverse platform showed potential for successful cancer control; however, according to participants’ feedback, its weakness was the lack of content diversity [11].

The Multidomain Metaverse Cancer Care Digital Platform: Development and Usability Study
Previous studies have argued that metaverse technology can successfully meet the demand for non–face-to-face medical services and improve health care quality [16,19-24].
As part of efforts to scrutinize the reasons for using metaverse technology and its effectiveness, research has been conducted to identify the factors associated with the use of metaverse.

In a recently published user acceptance test (UAT) we demonstrated patient acceptance of gamified software applied for ophthalmology-related health promotion and education in a mixed reality metaverse environment using augmented reality or virtual reality (VR) [15]. The software was designed for compatibility with commercially available VR headsets that are easily accessible to patients.
