Eight medical technology technology inventory: bionic 3D printing flexible microelectronics

Medgadget is a website dedicated to cutting-edge medical technology. They took stock of eight technology technologies that may change the medical operation in 2014 and are most beneficial to patients:

1. Flexible Microelectronics

Flexible microelectronics can react to different external conditions, cause irregular deformation, and even react according to different physical parameters.

Based on this technology, Google X Labs is developing contact lenses that measure blood sugar to help users read blood sugar in a non-invasive condition.

It measures whether the blood sugar is within safe limits by measuring the amount of glucose contained in the tears. Unlike existing blood tests, Google X reads data every second.

John A. Rogers, professor of flexible microelectronics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and the University of Washington research team have developed a flexible electronic sleeve that successfully covers the heart of a rabbit and monitors its electronic activity in 3D.

This technology is very likely to develop into a high-precision sensor and monitor arrhythmia, and even if it can smoothly control and compress energy, it can even become a small heart enhancement device.

Professor Rogers is also developing a flexible skin layer that may transmit heart and brain signals to smartphones and other terminals.

2. Medical 3D printing

In 2014, we saw 3D printing technology applied to the field of biological regeneration, such as the successful printing of the meniscus for a sheep, the second choice for prosthetic limbs for many patients.

In addition to the meniscus, the Daniel project in South Sudan and the University of Toronto and Autodesk Research in Uganda are studying how to get local patients to obtain arm prostheses through 3D printing. Especially in some war-prone areas, residents no longer have to rely on expensive equipment or external medical experts for treatment. This is so simple that it can even be done by high school students.

There is also a more subtle use scene, a Dutch woman successfully printed and installed a new skull, and a British man used a 3D printing technique for facial plastic surgery after a car accident. At the same time, in a facial transplant, the doctor printed a patient's skull according to the patient's CT1:1.

In China, 3D printing technology has successfully helped patients transplant titanium filler into the spine, solving the problems of rare orthopedic conditions and abnormal anatomical conditions. The University of Michigan successfully saved his life by successfully inserting a tracheal splint into the infant's respiratory tract.

Of course, it takes a while from experiment to clinical use.
