一个只值20美元(约89令吉)的谷歌虚拟实景卡纸眼镜(Google Cardboard),拯救了一名女婴的宝贵性命。
看3-D影像
4个月大的蒂根出生时,只有半个心和一边肺,需要进行修补手术。迈亚密的心脏科专家伯克医生准备做手术当天,医院的3-D打印机却坏了。时间一分一秒地过,穆尼兹医生灵机一触,利用3-D打印平台Sketchfab把蒂根的心肺影像下载至手机,再以谷歌虚拟实景卡纸眼镜观看,便可看到3-D影像。
伯克医生说,这是他首次接触谷歌虚拟实景卡纸眼镜,以此观看Sketchfab的影像和电脑断层 (CT)和磁力共振(MRI)扫瞄片,蒂根的心肺结构便清楚呈现眼前,令手术做得很顺利。
蒂根目前仍在氧气箱,但身体越来越强壮。至于伯克医生,仍对这种简单玩具带来的医学突破感到惊讶不已。
Muniz purchased a Google Cardboard (above) and by using an app called Sketchfab, he downloaded images of Teegan’s heart onto his iPhone. They used the virtual reality imaging device to effectively plan Teegan’s complex pediatric procedure
While looking through the Google Cardboard, Burke (above) could visualize what he could do to fix Teegan’s heart
Thanks to the Google Cardboard, the virtual images it produced of Teegan’s heart (above) allowed Burke to figure out a way how to successfully cut open her chest to get to her heart
Burke invented a new surgery using the device so that he could successfully operate on her heart (above)
