2936 He has created a new era!
“Zheng, let’s watch the recording of the remote surgery you performed yesterday.” Professor Charles said to Zheng Ren after he was done admiring his surgery.
After all, no matter how perfect an appendectomy was, it could only prove the suitability of this machine. Dr. Charles was more concerned about the feasibility of using this machine to perform difficult surgeries, such as the treatment of Gaucher’s disease.
The difficulty of the surgery could be clearly understood from the analysis of the 6.2-kilogram spleen.
The patient’s spleen weighed 6.2 kilograms. It was indeed strange to use weight as a unit of measurement to measure the difficulty of the surgery, but that was the truth.
Dr. Charles knew the difficulty of the operation of Gossett’s disease all too well. The patient was a pregnant woman, and she had to do a cesarean section and remove most of her spleen. Therefore, Dr. Charles couldn’t wait to watch the recording of the operation.
“Doctor, Su Yun and I cooperated to complete most of the splenectomy operations on the 3D printed simulation. The real patient is completed by our other doctors in the capital.” Zheng Ren repeated.
“I know, Zheng. You’ve just said this. Hurry up and let me see how you complete the operation with the mechanical arm. It doesn’t matter if it’s a surgery on a patient or a simulation of a human. ” Professor Charles urged.
As he spoke, the projection of the recorded surgery appeared on the big screen. Just like the assembly line in a factory, the four mechanical arms were silently cooperating with each other, and the recorded surgery began.
Dr. Charles watched with great interest. Unlike when he personally completed an appendectomy in the operating chamber, he could see the overall situation and more details by standing below and watching.
The disinfection and mechanical arm held the scalpel like a pen, as if it had a soul, and left a perfect cut on the 3D printed simulator.
Then, the other mechanical arm began to wipe the blood. Its movements were skilled and gentle. Next, it used electricity to stop the bleeding.
The two people and four mechanical arms worked together perfectly. If it wasn’t for the metallic texture and the feeling of the assembly line-like steam industry, no one would think that this was a work that could be completed by the crude mechanical arms.
In particular, Dr. Charles had just performed a surgery, so he could understand the difficulty of these operations.
However, after a few minutes, Dr. Charles frowned and stared at the screen. He asked in confusion,”Zheng, why do I feel like you didn’t do the surgery yourself?”
“Doctor, I was indeed the one operating the mechanical arm.” Zheng Ren said.
“There’s nothing wrong with the process, but the operation is too rusty, and it doesn’t have the smooth beauty at all. I’ve just tried operating the mechanical arm, and the feel is still very important. If it wasn’t for your affirmation, I would have thought that you were standing by the side and guiding other people while they performed the surgery. ” Said professor Charles.
Zheng Ren finally understood what Dr. Charles meant.
Some of the doctors who were observing the surgery also noticed this, and they whispered to each other.
If it were not for the fact that Zheng Ren had started a live broadcast of his surgery at Xinglin garden, and his surgical skills had long been recognized by everyone, the voices of doubt would have drowned Zheng Ren like an ocean.
“Doctor, you’ve misunderstood.” Zheng Ren smiled and said,”this is a remote operation. Because Stockholm’s network signal is average, the network speed is too slow, and there is network delay, so the operation looks a little jerky. However, during the surgery, Su Yun and I tried our best to overcome the high delay and avoid any mistakes during the surgery. “
Zheng Ren paused for a moment, then added,”the surgeon in charge of the surgery in Imperial is also very cautious. He only used our surgery as a reference and also made various fine adjustments according to the situation during the surgery.”
“Network delay.” Professor Charles said softly.
“Remote surgery is based on two points. One is the sensitivity of the mechanical arm, and the other is the speed of network transmission.” Zheng Ren said.
“Dr. Charles, without the 5g network, remote surgery is nonsense.” Su Yun added as she lied through her teeth.
Su Yun was the best at making half-right and half-wrong statements. He was not as meticulous as Zheng Ren. In fact, 4g optical fiber was enough, but 5g could further use wireless signals. For hospitals, fixing the space and fiber optics was a small matter.
Dr. Charles didn’t comment and watched the surgery seriously.
After hearing Zheng Ren and Dr. Charles ‘explanation, the other doctors’ doubts disappeared. Was it a problem with the internet? The laying of a 5g network involved a bigger problem, and it was not something that doctors could participate in.
Everyone quietly watched the surgery.
“Zheng, what’s the delay?” Professor Charles suddenly asked.
“It fluctuates between 80 110m, and most of the time, it is maintained at about 100m.” Zheng Ren said.
“It’s still fluctuations?” Professor Charles asked a very “stupid” question. After asking, he also reacted.
The transmission speed of the network was definitely not a fixed value. To complete the surgery under such circumstances, and it was a difficult surgery with the Gezer’s disease!
Professor Charles was silent.
In his eyes, the surgery that was originally not smooth and beautiful had another meaning.
There was no sound in the recorded surgery. Everyone in the entire Hall was focused on the surgery, and even the sound of breathing was hard to hear.
Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the assembly line-like mechanical arm.
Even with a delay of 100 ms, even if they were performing a difficult surgery for gaeshees ‘disease, the four mechanical arms still worked together almost perfectly, making everyone fascinated.
Was this the model for future surgeries? With the mechanical arm, the 3D printed model, and this brave attempt, it would not be too far away from the customized surgical chip.
Such a thought floated in Dr. Charles ‘mind.
He did not think about remote surgery. If possible, this type of surgery mode would definitely evolve to an era where no one was around.
Autonomous surgery and autonomous vehicle were two different concepts. However, if the patient’s information was mailed to the hospital, the surgeon would perform surgery on a 3D printed simulated human, then make a chip, and complete the surgery through the smart chip …
This was not a fantasy!
Zheng had already taken the first step, and even Dr. Charles couldn’t tell how many changes would happen next.
As he watched, he could not contain the excitement in his heart. His fingers trembled slightly.
When he first became a doctor, he did not dare to think about the concept of unmanned surgery. However, at this time, unmanned surgery had become a possibility!
However, Dr. Charles no longer thought about what might happen in the future. He focused on the surgery process on the “assembly line.” Even with a delay of 100 ms, the surgery was still performed accurately, and it was quite beautiful!
When the surgery was over, Dr. Charles turned around, opened his arms, and hugged Zheng Ren.
“Zheng, you’ve created a new era!”
