[Reporter Qiu Zhirou/Taipei Report] In addition to the relatively fast network speed, the 5G generation has the characteristics of ultra-high speed and low latency. It can also be combined with augmented reality (AR) to introduce medical courses, bringing breakthrough changes to medical education.

The Tri-Service General Hospital today shared that it has cooperated with Chunghwa Telecom to realize the distance learning of minimally invasive Da Vinci arm surgery. Fang Wenhui, executive director of the Artificial Intelligence Internet of Things Center of the Tri-Service General Hospital, said that this cooperation is an important advancement in medical education. Surgery is not a dream.

Da Vinci arm minimally invasive surgery can perform more complex and difficult operations through tiny openings. It has the advantages of small wounds and fast recovery. It is different from traditional surgery. Operate the robotic arm, but in the past, only the flat image on the big screen can be seen when observing and teaching.

Wang Yuqi, director of the Department of Gynecology and Oncology of the Third General Hospital, pointed out that the three generals use high-definition cameras to capture images and videos during the operation, and transmit the video images during the operation to the remote students’ AR glasses in real time through Chunghwa Telecom’s 5G private network, forming a 3D stereo images allow students to experience the scene.

Wang Yuqi said that the high speed and low latency of 5G make the remote teaching process more smooth and stable, and support multiple students in real-life teaching. At the same time, it can also achieve high-definition video and audio effects, and the positions of organs and scalpels can It is clearly displayed in front of the eyes, and even the key parts of the operation can be marked through the "video collaboration platform", so that students can deeply understand the details and skills of the operation process.

Fang Wenhui said that the use of 5G private network to realize the remote reality teaching of Da Vinci's minimally invasive arm surgery is an important advancement in medical education, but at present, the operator's operating table is still in the same space as the patient's operating table, and the 5G wireless network will be stable in the future. The development will further break through the space limitation, and it is expected to realize that "the doctor who holds the knife can operate the operating table on an outlying island on this island", opening up infinite possibilities of telemedicine.
