A virtual reality simulator for bone marrow harvest for pediatric transplant.

چکیده
Bone marrow transplant is a relatively new procedure to treat recently considered incurable diseases. One important part of the procedure is the process of harvesting the donor bone marrow. We are developing a virtual reality simulator for bone marrow harvest that integrates interactive stereo visualization and force feedback techniques. The main objective is to offer a low cost virtual reality system to boost current adopted training methodologies for bone marrow harvesting.

Fuzzy Rule-Based Evaluation for a Haptic and Stereo Simulator for Bone Marrow Harvest for Transplant
Virtual Reality has been used to simulate procedures in several fields, especially those where critical tasks are involved as simulation of some invasive medical procedures. We are developing a low-cost haptic and stereo simulator for bone marrow harvest for transplant. The system includes an intelligent evaluation procedure that allows classify the trainee learning. The present paper describes...

متن کاملBone Marrow Transplant (BMT) is the Main Cureavailable for Thalassamia
Introduction: The thalassamias refer to a diverse group of hemoglobin disorders characterized by a reduced synthesis of one or more of globin chains (α,β, γ, δβ,γδβ, δ and εγδβ).The main cure available today for thalassamia is bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from compatible donor.On December 3, 1981 a 14-month-old child with β-thalassemia major recieved BMT from his HLA-identical sister in...
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of a Novel Transplant Combined with Human Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Platelet-rich Fibrin: New Horizons for Periodontal Tissue Regeneration after Dental Trauma
Avulsed teeth that are replanted dried are more prone to loss. Recent tissue engineering studies focus onfabrication of various cell delivery systems to improve the overall prognosis of such teeth. To evaluate this newcell transplant method, we initially aimed at designing of PRF scaffold and determining BMMSCs viabilityand function on the fabricated scaffold. To test this concept in-vitro, hum...
