Some of them were included in the DOCOMOMO's list of buildings to be preserved and documented. As a consequence, every intervention on the hospitals' heritage requires a specialattention and needs a deep knowledge of the building in advance of taking action. On the other hand, such a particular heritage is beingcontinuously updated according to the new standards that derive from the current tendencies in hospital design, and also from advancesin healing techniques. In this context, 3D Modelling and virtual reality should have a decisive impact on the way hospitals' complexspaces are designed, as they become useful tools for describing the previous stages of the buildings, as well as the impacts of newproposals. They can even change our experience of the built environment. As a step forward, we are developing a methodology to beapplied to hospital design where these tools, together with BIM models -and in the near future, high-end immersive VR systems- playan important role.
