A medical teaching revolution VR live robot surgery

Even at Zhongshan Hospital, there are only about 1600 cases of colorectal cancer surgery a year. There are not many opportunities for each doctor to practice, and there may be fewer general hospitals. Often, it takes at least a decade to train a surgeon who can stand on the operating table. A big reason for this is the shortage of teaching resources.

In the past, a ward admitted to a ward was about 20 in a year, each time ranging from three months to six months. Most of the doctors who had passed the strict application screening were given the opportunity to come here. The country's top hospitals for further study.

At noon on June 19, thousands of doctors in the main conference hall of the Shanghai International Convention Center were wearing VR glasses to experience a special live broadcast.

“The surgical procedure is very clear,” said a doctor at the scene.

The team of Professor Xu Jianmin from Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University is the protagonist of this live broadcast. They are demonstrating a robotic radical surgery for rectal cancer. Nationally, their team represents the highest level of minimally invasive surgery for rectal cancer.

In the past, no more than ten doctors could perform observations and study in the operating room at the same time. But now, VR technology is making such surgery more clear to more doctors.

In the past few years, they have tried 3D broadcasts and microblogs live broadcasts, but compared to VR live broadcasts, both in terms of visual effects and the number of people on the Internet, they are all a lot worse.

"3D broadcast, you have to see it at a fixed point of rotation, but VR technology uses mobile signals, you can also wear glasses at home, and can make the doctor feel like in the operating room." Qin Xinyu said, positive Mobile communication solves two critical issues of bandwidth and speed, and the accessibility of 3D images is now a reality.
