Chapter 252 Milestone Surgery
California Governor Arnold Newsom is very strong.
It is said that the car that hit him was an out-of-control van. Fortunately, it was not a dump truck, otherwise it would be difficult for gods to save him.
But the current situation is not much better.
"Five ribs were broken, including the third to seventh ribs. Emergency treatment has been carried out. The current problem is that the lungs were scratched by the broken bones."
"The spleen is slightly bruised and the blood loss is getting worse. But this is a minor problem. Blood cloning is already being done. It will be fine soon."
“Spinal injuries are serious and may cause limited mobility and nerve pain.”
"The most troublesome ones are concussions and intracerebral hemorrhages."
Broken ribs are serious, but not fatal.
Massive bleeding caused by organ damage can also be directly transfused using blood cloning technology. This is his own blood and will not even have any immune response.
As for those wounds, biological suture materials copied from the cyberpunk world can be used for sutures——
Of course this is still a very delicate operation.
So when everyone saw Lear controlling the robotic arm and performing nano-level surgery,
"Unbelievable." Dr. Otto showed a shocked look, "Have you perfected the octopus arm?"
"almost."
To be precise, the little octopus has perfected its own driver and is becoming more and more intelligent.
Compared with the robotic arms in the cyberpunk world, the octopus arm designed by Dr. Otto is incredibly flexible, but it does not have a powerful drive to match its exquisite bionic mechanical structure.
Dr. Otto's idea was to use an artificial neural network AI to automatically optimize, but that proved to be too dangerous.
According to the original script, this octopus arm will continue to operate, fit, and eventually become more and more sensitive and intelligent, until it inspires Dr. Otto's subconscious ambition and cruelty, and then merges into one.
But now, these processes have been completed with Lille, and there has been no behavioral decline between the two.
The modified octopus arm pulled out the suture needle from the window, and after hearing this, waved it in front of Otto——
Although it is a completely different thing, it also knows that its source code comes from Dr. Otto.
Otto looked at the octopus arm and smiled happily in shock: "Is it saying hello to me?"
"Yes." Lear patted the octopus arm, and the latter began to replace the blade on his own. "If you want to try it, I can get one for you when the chip is in place."
"Every scientist should have an assistant like this - that was my original idea for creating it and I would definitely try it if I had the chance."
Otto nodded happily.
Professor Connors on the side stared at the monitor on the screen: "No. Governor Newsom still has no intention of waking up. The neurological damage may be more serious than we thought."
Trouble came anyway.
Unexplained brain injury is always the most difficult injury to deal with, and coma may be a precursor to death.
Lille made an immediate decision: "Prepare for brain-computer interface implantation surgery."
"What are you going to do?"
"Use the brain-computer interface to read neural data, monitor and adjust brain electrical signals, and implement precise adjustments and repairs to abnormal areas."
"But..." Connors hesitated.
If combined with the chip functions that Lille just introduced to them, it is indeed possible to achieve meticulous monitoring.
But medicine requires a lot of experiments and data accumulation. Even if the chip and supporting equipment can monitor comprehensive and detailed EEG data, how can Lear determine what is normal and what is abnormal?
How much data and cases are needed to get a mature medical solution!
But Connors thought about what he saw in Leal.
That artificial spine.
So he nodded complicatedly: "Okay, get ready for brain-computer surgery."
Otto, who was listening to the whole process, interrupted the two of them for no apparent reason: "Wait a minute - so why did you suddenly decide to directly open the brain-computer interface?
Even if a chip could help with this medical process, we don’t have a chip yet! "
Connors also thought about this problem.
However, he had no intention of asking, and instead stared at Lille silently—looking at Lille's pocket to be precise.
However, this time he was looking in the wrong direction. Octopus Arms hid behind Lille and quietly took out a chip from the clothes hanging next to him.

[Technology Point-600]
When the chip arrived in Lear's hands, Connors secretly shouted that he had been deceived!
"Actually, we have one. I rubbed it out with an octopus arm and have done some experiments."
Otto was speechless, pointed at Lear, and then looked at Connors who was shaking his head secretly--
"You and I. Okay, I'll prepare the materials."
"I'll go communicate with the family."
As if defeated, Connors also walked out of the room, shaking his head.
In the Marvel world, this would be a very landmark operation.
After a brief deliberation, Lille decided to make the specific details of the operation public——
He hopes that through this operation, the standard for brain-computer interfaces in the Marvel world will also be established.
At the beginning of the operation, because there is no complete set of technical standards, the equipment used will be relatively reluctant.
The first is the implantation of sensors and electrodes. The equipment can be directly improved from the technology used by Dr. Otto. The surgical method has standards in mind.
After these devices are placed in the corresponding brain areas, the signals will be transmitted along the circuit to the signal processing unit.
The core of this signal processing unit is the sex chip, which is connected to a large number of external modulation and demodulation equipment, and finally outputs various signals to the display screen in a visual format——
This display replaced the early prosthetic eye in the cyberpunk world and provided human-computer interaction with the developers in the room.
After the signal path is opened, programming is required to process the collected signals into understandable natural language, and then convert the natural language into corresponding brain electrical signals to stimulate the nerve center.
Because this operation is about establishing technical standards, Lear explained the process and design ideas in detail, and also deepened his understanding of brain-computer interface technology through the feedback from these Marvel technology experts.
The entire process was recorded by Peter, and he and Professor Connors will later complete the corresponding compilation and compile it into a volume to standardize prosthetic surgery.
Then, by standardizing and integrating all the devices used, a standardized brain-computer interface can be obtained.
In the cyberpunk world, Leal only needed an operation that could be completed in less than an hour, but here he spent a full eight hours, from afternoon to evening.
The display has concise and easy-to-understand data, and the area of nerve damage is also marked, as well as the difference between the corresponding reading and the normal reading.
".These abnormalities usually mean that nerve damage has occurred. The reasons may be various, and doctors need to make judgments based on the actual situation.
In this case, we know that this is due to a concussion caused by an impact, and recovery can be assisted by appropriate electrical stimulation in areas where no physical damage has occurred.
But in areas where significant physical damage has occurred, we need to perform surgery to drain the ventricles. "
A variety of life monitoring methods, coupled with precise nerve potential monitoring, can theoretically accurately find every bleeding point and abnormal location.
"This is absolutely a revolutionary medical breakthrough." Connors recorded a lot of things in his notebook. "This will play an important role in the treatment of a large number of neurological diseases."
"That's right." Lear nodded.
Understanding a disease is the basis for treating it.
Such detailed monitoring will allow the medical community to gain a better understanding of the pathogenesis of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, migraine and chronic pain.
Further promote the development of technologies such as deep brain stimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation, so that humans are no longer helpless and stretched to deal with these diseases.
"And" Otto thought thoughtfully about other aspects, looking at Connors' empty sleeves, "we can use another method to help people with limb disabilities, which is much less risky than directly attaching limbs."
When treatment arrived, Governor Newsom’s head was already filled with various intubations, and he had already undergone two rounds of electrical stimulation therapy.
Drop. Drop.
The buzzer sounded and a new prompt appeared on the display.
Governor Newsom is waking up.
