Chapter 1024 The most intuitive explanation of surgery

Soon, the two Nobel Prize winners came to the Digital Medicine Laboratory of Nandu Medical University with a desire to see the world.

Two Nobel Prize winners came to the same laboratory at the same time, and they were not there to give lectures, but to experience the VR operating room. Not only the whole laboratory was in a frenzy, but the entire Nandu Medical University was also in a frenzy. What force attracted two Nobel Prize winners, one of whom was the famous Mannstein.

Mannstein was very famous in the medical community, and in people's minds he was simply a god. After the news spread, many people gathered in the Digital Medicine Laboratory, hoping to meet this god.

As soon as Yang Ping led them out of the car, they went straight to the laboratory. Professor He and several doctors were already waiting at the door. The respect of academics for academics was very pure. Director He also knew Yang Ping's intention, to take this opportunity to promote the digital medical technology of Nandu Medical University to the world, hoping to lead the standard setting in this field. The highest voice in any field in the world is to be able to master the standard setting.

When we arrived at the VR operating room, there was no nonsense. Everyone got straight to the point and took their own seats. They put on VR helmets, glasses and gloves, and Director He started the VR operating room program.

The virtual body was lying on the operating table, the blood vessels on the exposed skin of the heart were dilated, and the heart was beating violently in front of his eyes.

"This is a virtual Elsa created using VR technology. You see, it was modeled and replicated using her original examination data. The degree of restoration is very high. Currently, no other team in the world can achieve this level of realism." Yang Ping explained as he prepared to start.

Mannstein and Brian looked down at the virtual body. In terms of clarity, it was clearer than in reality, because the skin texture and pores were visible to the naked eye. In the VR world, it seemed as if the observer's vision had been greatly improved.

"You can reach out and touch it." Yang Ping reminded Brian.

Brian carefully extended a finger and gently pressed on the exposed surface of the heart. He was surprised by how realistic it felt.

Brian has a relatively good understanding of VR virtual technology. He has visited laboratories in the United States and the United Kingdom in depth. At that time, he was very shocked by the technology of these two laboratories, especially the tactile feedback technology. He thought that it was the world's top VR technology, but he did not expect that the VR virtual body in front of him is now more realistic. The touch of his fingers just now was very delicate, almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

"You can try to cut it open." Yang Ping handed Brian a scalpel.

Brian hesitated with the virtual scalpel in his hand. Because it was so realistic, he couldn't tell the real thing from the fake and didn't dare to make a move.

"She is a virtual body. Don't be afraid. Cut it open boldly and see what the heart looks like under the skin." Yang Ping encouraged Brian.

Okay, I'll try.

Following Yang Ping's instructions, Brian began to gently cut the skin. The skin kept breaking under the knife, small blood vessels and capillaries were severed, blood oozed out, and some small arteries began to spurt blood directly.

"The establishment of a virtual body relies on advanced digital human technology, and our digital human simulation has reached the cellular level. The VR you are experiencing now is the world's top digital human technology, bar none." Yang Ping pressed the edge of the incision with gauze, and then used a virtual electric knife to stop the bleeding.

Everything is just like the real thing. The electrosurgical knife coagulates the blood vessels with a hissing sound and a light smoke comes out. Then the blood vessels are blocked and the bleeding stops. "Our modeling is very complex, considering millions of parameters. This is a simulation of Aisha's anatomy. I can show you the whole operation process. You can know how the operation is performed, what risks we face, and how to solve problems if they occur."

Yang Ping took the scalpel from Brian and continued the operation.

"Is the bleeding of the blood vessels completely in accordance with the caliber and pressure of the blood vessels in this part of the human body? Including the clotting time, is it also designed according to the physiological standards of the human body?" Brian said curiously. He didn't know whether this simulation was a simulation or just an expression of existence without considering the details.

Yang Ping began to dissect the pericardium and exposed the heart: "These are just the most basic technologies of our digital humans. Almost all physiological functions of the human body can be realized here. In the future, any human experiment can be completed in a virtual laboratory. With the help of the computing power of supercomputers, we can put certain changes in the human body into the virtual environment and scale them up or down in proportion. The human experiment that originally took ten years to complete may be completed in just one day in the future."

My God, what is this concept? This is to virtualize, speed up, and simulate human experiments. Once realized, it will be epoch-making. For example, it will be disruptive in the field of medical research and development. Now, we have painstakingly collected data for more than ten years, but with digital human technology, we can complete more than ten years of evolution in a few minutes and collect data directly.

"A top-notch VR human body simulation requires three aspects: advanced digital human technology, advanced imaging technology, and analysis and reconstruction of imaging images. None of these can be missing. Our digital human technology is the first in the world to realize functional human construction, and our imaging analysis and construction model is also the most advanced in the world. Look, this is Aisha's heart, the anatomical structure between the pericardium and the myocardium. We simulated it very well because our model takes more parameters into consideration. Other VR human body simulations can only be said to be toys compared to our model." Yang Ping had already cut open the pericardium, revealing the heart to Brian, so that he could see what his granddaughter's heart looked like.

The scene simulated by VR has an immersive effect, which is definitely not comparable to those images.

"Look, this is Aisha's heart. We must move it into the chest cavity, and we must also correct all the deformities that come with it." Yang Ping pointed to the heart and showed it to Brian.

Brian reached out and gently touched the beating heart, only to pull his hand back immediately after just a touch because the heart felt so real under his fingers that he almost thought it was real.

"Cantrell pentad patients often have multiple heart malformations, such as double outlet ventricle, atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, abdominal midline defect, umbilical hernia, etc. All of these malformations must be corrected. As you can see now, this heart is not only malformed in position, but also in structure. We must restore it to normal."

Yang Ping explained the procedure to Brian while performing the operation, while Mannstein acted as a temporary assistant.

Using VR technology, Aisha's heart surgery was demonstrated again. There was no need for too much language. Only a few words were needed to explain the key steps, and Brian knew everything.

He had taken Aisha to almost every possible hospital in the world, including the best hospital in the United States, but no doctor had ever explained his condition to him like this. He now realized that the hospital he was in was not the best hospital in the world, and the Chinese hospital he was in was the best hospital in the world.

Yang Ping's hands were very deft, and his surgical movements were steady, accurate, and brisk, allowing Brian to experience the different surgical styles of Oriental people for the first time.

"Now we are going to stop the heart by injecting virtual cardioplegia solution and then using virtual extracorporeal circulation in a virtual environment." Yang Ping stopped the scalpel in his hand.

"You have virtual cardioplegia technology? Virtual cardioplegia solution," Mannstein asked.

"Yes, its essence is a program module." Yang Ping began to inject cardioplegia solution.
