According to foreign media reports, astronauts develop a crystal on the International Space Station, which will help develop new drugs for humans on Earth. Here are ten health care technologies from the space field:
1, the robot can remove brain tumors
Canada developed a robot during the space shuttle period - "Canada Arm 2", which is attached to the outside of the International Space Station and will be used outside the International Space Station to accomplish many tasks, thereby preventing astronauts from having to complete high-risk space. walk. This technology helps to develop a "neuroArm" that can be used for precision MRI, such as removing brain tumors.
2. Eye tracker in eye laser surgery
In space, due to the lack of gravitation, it will change the way the eye moves and senses motion. High-tech eye tracker can observe the normal work of astronauts in microgravity environment. Eye movement is a problem faced by laser eye surgery. The eye tracker developed in space flight is currently used to correct laser eye surgery to ensure Correct laser beam positioning.
3. Help asthma patients breathe
Nitric oxide is a common substance of air pollution and is also found on Earth and the International Space Station. When someone has an inflamed breathing tube, such as an asthma patient, the amount of nitric oxide in his exhaled air will increase. The latest medical device from the European Space Agency is able to accurately measure the nitric oxide content of astronauts' exhaled gases to detect potential inflammation. This allows astronauts to be treated in time before the condition becomes heavier. The technique is now used in asthma patients to detect the nitric oxide index in the exhaled gases from the lungs.
4. Drugs that make bones stronger
In the space microgravity environment, there is no gravitational force on the human body, astronauts will have reduced bone density, similar to the phenomenon of osteoporosis in the elderly, so in order to reduce osteoporosis, astronauts often exercise in space. At the same time, astronauts must take a small dose of bisphosphonate per week to further reduce osteoporosis. The aging population on the planet has begun taking drugs like bisphosphonates.
5, measuring body temperature
Infrared technology developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory decades ago was used to survey the temperature of planets and stars. In 1991, the technology was applied to in-ear thermometers. In-ear thermometers can read body temperature in just a few seconds and are used to provide more accurate temperature measurements. They can be used in hospital clinics, doctors, and even everyday homes.
6, measuring brain pressure
In measuring changes in astronauts' visual acuity, scientists found that their visual acuity was affected by increased internal pressure in the skull, and the increase in intracranial pressure was due to an increase in cerebrospinal fluid volume. Aeronautical doctors need to monitor these pressure changes more easily. The UK has recently developed a device that measures head pressure using ear drum displacement, a non-invasive medical diagnosis that is fast and unaffected by the diagnostic environment.
7. "Star Trek" version of the traction beam that helps to remove kidney stones
People in the space environment will increase the risk of kidney stone formation. For astronauts, kidney stones can cause infections and serious complications that can cause astronauts to evacuate. NASA's latest development of a "Star Trek" version of the handheld ultrasound device makes it easy to detect and move kidney stones and smash kidney stones. At the same time, this technology brings the gospel to patients with kidney stones living on Earth.
8, "invisible braces"
Transparent polycrystalline alumina is an advanced high-strength, maximum transparency crush-resistant ceramic material used in military defense and aerospace. Scientists believe that this material can be used to make transparent braces to give the teeth some color. After testing, the material was used to make the most successful orthodontic products in history.
9. Using medical imaging techniques to detect injuries and cancer
NASA pioneered the use of high-tech digital signal processing to improve the image resolution of the moon and found the best lunar landing site for the Apollo spacecraft. These signal processing technologies are now widely used in CT and MRI scans to help doctors detect body damage and cancer. The most important thing is that there is no need to perform surgical wounds on patients. The current technology is still being researched and upgraded.
10. Simplified kidney dialysis from the spacecraft filtration system
Condensate is heavier, so astronauts need to reduce the amount of condensed water they travel from Earth to space. They do this by cycling and purifying most of the ISS's urine, including the astronauts' urine. Although these filtration systems are still under development, scientists applied the same technique to remove toxic waste from dialysis fluids. This will create a new dialysis device that eliminates the need for continuous water and drain connections, meaning that the device is less versatile and portable and can be used at home.
Top Ten "Health Technology" from the space field
[ China Pharmaceutical Network Technology News ] With the exploration of the universe by human beings, the mystery of the space field has gradually been unveiled. Collisions between space and medical fields have also sparked different sparks. For example, robots can remove brain tumors, eye movements in eye laser surgery, drugs that help asthma patients breathe, make bones stronger, and measure body temperature. Wait.
