Novel In-vivo Microscopy Technique for Internal Bleeding Using Transparent Fish

摘要

To investigate the mechanism of internal bleeding resulting from human-robot interactions, an in-vivo microscopy technique is developed. A transparent indenter was loaded onto a subject (an anesthetized transparent glass catfish). The affected blood vessels were investigated though the intender using a microscope equipped with a video camera. The internal bleeding, changes in the arrangement of secondary vessels, and bone contusions caused by loading were observed via the proposed microscopy technique, which is expected to capture information how the vessels fracture and cause the internal bleeding in order to discuss the safety criteria of robots.
