English professor to develop micro-machine the doctors to perform medical tasks
Usually take the right amount of medication to the back of the eye is very difficult to achieve. However, this situation may soon change, because the British expert team developed a miniature machine physicians, clinicians are using it to slow down the speed of the patient's vision loss. Miniature "machine doctor" even smaller than grains of sand from within the patient's body for treatment. This machine doctor "that contains a microchip that is thinner than a human hair. It was originally used to treat patients with eye diseases, will be to save eyesight of thousands of people. According to the designers in Scotland, the machine will be implanted in the eye to detect changes in the inside of the eye and for lesions prescribe the right medicine. Doctors hope that the application of computer chips to the same applications as the treatment of eye diseases to other parts of the body including the brain to detect the disease and for lesions of the direct prescription.
Machine doctor "is jointly developed by the Princess Alexandra Eye Hospital in Edinburgh, UK the ophthalmologist BaljeanDhillon Professor, University of Edinburgh microelectronics professor AnthonyWalton of. This microchip can be used in the senile plaque decay (AMD) treatment in Scotland, about 10 million people have been eye trouble, and it is the main reason leading to senile blindness. Machine doctor "can also be used 360 million due to poor body circulation lead to optic nerve damage caused by glaucoma patients, as well as thousands of patients caused due to insufficiency of blood loss affect the retina of diabetic retinal disease.
Professor Dhillon is an Honorary Professor of Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, he said: oral drugs to go through the intestine, the body loop, similar to the part of the retina before being absorbed through blood vessels into the period will be similar to the diaphragm obstacles prevent drugs be absorbed. eye drops is very difficult to be absorbed, only the syrup contained pharmaceutical ingredients just to reach the back of the eye to be absorbed. "The technology will take a groundbreaking step: it is a new way to cure these diseases Once clinically proven safe and effective and will save the eyesight of thousands of people. "
These chips made of silicon or plastic, of course, use of microscope visualization instrument to complete the manufacturing work, this instrument can circuitry is mounted to the invisible particles. The chip comes with a sensor used to detect lesions, vascular overgrowth as in senile plaques in bad ill will. Sensor for another part of the information notification chip to release the right amount of medicines for the treatment of the lesion. The current drugs used to treat eye disease, can prevent the growth of new blood vessels and the blood vessels of the optic nerve fiber tissue. Chip implanted under local anesthesia site eye tissues to be protected by only a few millimeters of the eye a small incision. A few months without replacing the chip. Dhillon and Walton said they want to see the machine the doctor to enter the market within six to seven years.
