The most conventional technique in neurosurgery currently uses microscopy.
The lesions in the brain are very small, and the lesions can be found more easily through microscope magnification.
Zhao Yuan has studied Tianhua's equipment. The microscopes include Zeiss' k900 and Leica's proveo8, which are the latest models and are first-class equipment in the world.
With the development of technology, brain endoscopy has also become the development direction of neurosurgery.
Currently, Tianhua also has a chief physician who studies endoscopic neurosurgery.
As for the equipment used, it is Shen brand high-definition endoscope.
The difference between an endoscope and a microscope is that a microscope is a camera placed outside and can see the entire outside of the brain.
Endoscopy, on the other hand, uses some special approaches to see the inside of the brain.
To use an inappropriate analogy, an external mirror is skin-to-skin contact, while an endoscopic mirror is an in-depth communication.
At present, neurosurgery in China has made good progress in microscopy technology and endoscopic technology, and endoscopy in particular is at a relatively leading level in the world.
But it is not possible to perform endoscopic surgery well just by having the equipment.
First of all, the endoscopic approach technique is very important.
To put it bluntly, the endoscopic approach is how to put the endoscopic equipment into your brain.
For example, if a patient has a chordoma at the base of his skull, the endoscope needs to be inserted through the nose. However, not all doctors can perform this approach quickly and well.
Moreover, every specific tumor has a preferred surgical approach to reach it. However, knowing only one approach is never enough.
However, whether it is endoscopy, microscope or exoscopy, they are all ways to observe tumors.
The assistant surgeon can clearly see the location of the tumor and the environment around the tumor.
However, the "chopstick technique" is a technique that can remove tumors.
As the name suggests, the posture of the chopstick technique is a bit like using chopsticks to pick things up.
Of course, when using this technique, it is impossible to actually use chopsticks, but to use special tools. The suction device must be specially made, much longer than the conventional one, and it must also have softness and plasticity, so that it can be used
The chopstick technique is easier to use.
As for the chopstick technique, it is relatively simple to explain. One hand holds the endoscope, and the little finger and thumb will hold the suction device. The other hand can be freed, and the two hands play the role of three hands.
Some more complex difficulties can be solved quickly by one person.
Zhao Yuan had some understanding of this technology in another world.
Because I have experience, it is not difficult to restore the surgical process.
The difficulty lies in the production of special equipment!
Among various types of equipment, the most critical one is the suction device.
The aspirator is an important tool for capturing tumors.
The attractor not only has requirements on length and shape, but also on material.
Zhao Yuan spent the whole morning studying the procedures of chopstick surgery and the production of equipment.
The process is easy to sort out.
After all, he now has good attainments in neurosurgery, and his hands and feet are relatively flexible, so he can barely do the chopstick technique.
However, equipment production involves materials and engineering, and Zhao Yuan was an amateur. After he completed the drawings, he sent them to Hu Weicheng of Salamander.
Hu Weicheng made a two-hour phone call with Zhao Yuan to understand Zhao Yuan's needs and expected to have the equipment produced within a week.
Hu Weicheng still admires Zhao Yuan. Not all surgeons will devote their energy to the research and development of equipment.
Most surgeons only think about what instruments are needed for surgery, but they don't think about what instruments should be used for surgery.
When a surgeon researches the innovation of instruments, he already has the ability to create a new school.
Zhao Yuan's research and development of thoracic and cardiac surgical instruments has benefited Hu Weicheng a lot.
Although Hu Weicheng is a well-known engineer in the industry, he does not know much about surgery and does not know what kind of products surgeons need. Zhao Yuan just makes up for this shortcoming.
At present, the aortic stent graft product has received unanimous praise from many surgeons during the trial period. As for the polymer valve, samples have also been released, and a working group has been set up in Tianhua to conduct testing.
The research and development of medical devices is a long process, but Hu Weicheng is very confident in these two products.
With the experience of cooperating on two products, Hu Weicheng and Zhao Yuan already have a tacit understanding.
He knew what Zhao Yuan wanted.
Zhang Qinmo discovered that during the recent period, his master often stayed in the office studying techniques, and sometimes did not go out for several hours. Except for the occasional operation, he spent all his time practicing.
She couldn't help feeling that only by combining talent with hard work can one become a monster.
Jiang Jing was often called to the office by Zhao Yuan these days.
He was shocked by what Zhao Yuan studied.
Because if Zhao Yuan's technique matures, it will set off a hurricane in neurosurgery.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Yuan walked out of the office.
After several days of immersive research, he finally sorted out the chopstick techniques.
Zhao Yuan also discovered through this period that his ability and understanding of learning new techniques were indeed a bit buggy.
You will inevitably encounter obstacles during the process, but at critical moments, you will suddenly become enlightened.
The next step is to wait for the equipment to arrive.
Zhao Yuangang was about to enter the ward.
A message was received on the phone.
The message was from Dr. Baddeck.
"Dear Swordsman Te Zhao, Brad has just completed his first game after surgery. He brought a visual enjoyment to all fans and successfully scored 28 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists.
Of course, he also brought incredible surprises to the sports medicine community. The endostent technology you developed has proven to be very effective for athletes. Many teams are already contacting us. Therefore, most of these patients are in Europe. We sincerely invite you
You go to Germany and I will arrange everything."
Zhao Yuan calculated the time.
I didn't expect time to fly by so quickly. It has been three months since Brad had his knee surgery.
Zhao Yuan is not an avid basketball fan, but he knows the situation of Brad's club.
Because they lacked the core member of Brad, they had a stumbling performance in the preseason, and outsiders believed that they would be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
Unexpectedly, Brad turned the situation around with his wonderful performance after his comeback.
Zhao Yuan thought for a while and replied to Badek:
"Dear Dr. Badke! It's an honor to receive your invitation.
I must say sorry.
My current work has been adjusted and I have many complicated matters at hand. I cannot leave to go to Germany."
Zhao Yuan's message has just been sent.
The phone received a reply from Dr. Baddeck.
"I will communicate with those patients. I believe they will not mind going to China for treatment."
Zhao Yuan politely replied, "Thank you for your understanding. I will wait for you and the patient to arrive in Tianhua!"
