Operaton by iPod Touch In Mumbai
We all know that iOS devices are helping different sectors such as: education, healthcare, beauty and more. But how surprising will it be for you if I’ll say that a complex knee replacement surgery can be performed using an iPod touch? Bit shocked? But that’s true.
Apparently, Arun Mullaji and a team of doctors at Breach Candy hospital in Mumbai claims to have an implemented system that uses an iPod touch alongside DASH learn (an application available in App Store) to perform knee replacement surgeries.
According to Dr Arun Mullaji:
The intuitive iPod touch operation saves the need for heavy computers and more importantly the learning curve / certification required by doctors. And ask him why not the iPad, he shoots back with ‘its like taking a picture from the iPad camera’. Breach Candy has performed 3 successful surgeries using this technology
The application is developed by BrainLab (Smith & Nephew Dash Smart Instrument system), interested users can try the demo app from App Store for free. The hardware has a CE certification for Europe and awaits approval on US.
