Surgeons at Nicklaus Children's Hospital in Miami, Florida used Google's Cardboard VR headset to help save a four-month-old little girl's life.

The pediatric surgeons at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital took computer scans of Teegan’s heart and lung and uploaded the images to a smartphone. They were then able to look at 3D images of her tiny heart and lung using Google Cardboard.
 
Unless the $20 cardboard device actually did the MRI(?) scan, it played as much a part in saving a kid's life as the HP monitor in my dentist's office did to fill my cavity.
