Children are not little adults, which is why even the simplest of procedures requires a hospital that is 100 percent dedicated to caring for children. Children’s Mercy is one of only 10 centers in the country to be as recognized as a Level 1 Children’s Surgery Center, the highest possible rating. The result? An organization with pediatrics specialists in every subspecialty that sets the standard of care instead of just practicing it.
Emory has one of the few heart and vascular centers nationally performing robotic cardiac surgery using the daVinci Surgical System. Emory's robotic surgeons have completed numerous cases and are recognized in Atlanta, the Southeast and across the country for their expertise in cardiac surgery. Some of the cardiac and thoracic conditions treated by Emory cardiac surgeons include mitral valve repair and replacement, atrial septal defect repair, atrial myxoma and thrombi, coronary bypass (LIMA to LAD), mediastinal mass excision, thymectomy, epicardial lead placement and pericardial window.
For open hernia repair surgery, a single long incision is made in the groin. If the hernia is bulging out of the abdominal wall (a direct hernia), the bulge is pushed back into place. If the hernia is going down the inguinal canal (indirect), the hernia sac is either pushed back or tied off and removed.
This video shows management of rupture of the posterior capsule post blunt trauma in a child aged 8. Pre-operative suspicion of PCR was strong because of a flat anterior. So we were careful in our approach from the very beginning. CCC was performed and then dry aspiration of lens matter initiated. Sice vitreous showed, so anterior vitrectomy was done along with systematic removal of the lens matter. An acrysof multi-component lens was implanted into the sulcus and optic captured into the CCC.Outcome was very good.
New York Plastic Surgery ,Dr. Robert Vitolo ,board certified plastic surgeon , brings you into the operating room for a glimpse at how his transumbilical breast augmentation procedure is performed. Dr. Vitolo, a pioneer in the 'no visible scar' breast enlargement surgery, has been using this technique since 1994. Dr. Vitolo use Allergan Natrelle saline breast implants and Mentor saline implants. Dr. Vitolo also performs a removal of silicone gel implants and replacement with saline implants using the transumbilical method.
With an Ophthalmoscope, light is shone into the eye and the retina and the optic nerve is examined. This is called as Examination of the Fundus. This is what the eye-doctor sees when he peeps into your eye! Through the transparent cornea, into the dark interior. The Fundus Exam When he looks into the eye with the Ophthalmoscope, he sees a orange glowing interior. That is the retina. The retina is actually transparent. It appears bright because of blood vessels in the choroid layer below. It is like looking at your ear against the bright sunlight. The yellow circle is the Optic Nerve, the cable of vision! A red, shiny dot attracts attention. That is the macula. If indicated, the exam of periphery of the retina is done with an Indirect ophthalmoscope. The ophthalmologist wears this instrument on the head and focuses the light into the eye with a lens held in his hand. This is usually done in a dark room.
On Tuesday May 29th at 3:00pm EDT, University Hospitals Case Medical Center Cleveland, Ohio, will host a live webcast to demonstrate the removal of brain tumor and epileptic focus from an awake patient using intra-operative MRI and brain mapping. See this on OR-Live.com
The patient was a middle-aged gentleman with new onset seizures. An MRI showed what appeared to be a low grade glioma near the motor strip on the right. Studies have shown that complete removal can cure the seizures, improve quality of life and survival, but this is difficult to do with conventional technology without harming the surrounding normal brain because its difficult to determine where tumor ends and normal brain begins.
Watch as Dr. Benjamin Carson performs risky brain surgery on young Payton to remove a brain tumor. Dr. Carson, director of pediatric neurosurgery, is just one of the many reasons why Johns Hopkins Children's Center was recently ranked #1 in neurology and neurosurgery in America's Best Children's Hospitals 2008
I call this technique deep rendering. I basically stacked graphical cross-sections (in this case, MRI rendering data), using proper increments and clip through them with the camera. This way I am able to explore all internal components in full 3D real-time.
I actually was able to figure out how to colorize different organs to help distinguish them apart from each other but couldn't get the shader to render real-time in Maya.
