A patent application has been published for a device called the "Microsurgery Auxiliary Device" that aims to improve microsurgery procedures. The device, developed by inventors from Suzhou City, China and assigned to Zumax Medical Co. Ltd., consists of a lens body and a naked eye 3D display. Surgeons can perform surgical operations by observing the display, which is designed to be simple with low system delay and offers traditional visual observation. The device includes an acquisition device, a processing device, and a driving device, which work together to collect position information of the observer's eyes and adjust the display angle of the naked eye 3D display accordingly. This device allows for direct surgical operation, reducing the need for complex image processing and minimizing system delay. It also offers benefits such as reduced visual fatigue, convenient observation of tissue structures at different depths, and the ability to track the observer's eyes for optimal viewing.

A recent study conducted by researchers at Zhengzhou University in China explored the use of bronchial balloon dilation (BD) combined with cryotherapy and Photoshop-based image processing technology for the treatment of tuberculous cicatricial central airway stenosis (CCAS). The study analyzed the clinical data of 307 patients with CCAS from six hospitals in Henan, China. The results showed that BD combined with cryotherapy was more effective than BD alone, with higher response rates and lower rates of restenosis. The study also found that Photoshop-based image processing technology could be used to measure the degree of central airway stenosis. [Extracted from the article]

A research study conducted at the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in China has been published in the journal Brain Sciences. The study focuses on brain extraction in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as an initial step in image processing for various applications such as disease diagnosis and surgical navigation. The researchers propose a dimensionality reduction hybrid U-Net model framework to enhance the precision of brain semantic segmentation. The proposed framework was tested using benchmark datasets and achieved improved results compared to previous studies. The study provides valuable insights into the field of brain sciences and MRI image processing. [Extracted from the article]
