Research reveals the computer can measure patients and pain
Whether the patient feels pain, doctors can only know through inquiring. But to those " Ache and can not say either " Special patient,inquire can not solve problem. American researchers develop a method newly, can detect patients and have a pain sense with the computer. The researchers of the medical college of Stanford University say, it is put the brain scan when people are feeling pain in order, the computer " Remember " The characteristics of these pictures, thus measure people's pain sense through the technology of such neural formation of image. Under test, researcher let 8 volunteer contact hot bolling hot object successively, and carry on the brain scanning separately when they contact these two kinds of objects, let computer through a on the basis of count the intersection of pattern-recognition and method to study theory, come, give brain activity mode to go on classifying subsequently, thus confirm whether volunteers are being tormented by pain. The result reveals, the computer determines the volunteer pains the rate of accuracy of the sense is more than 80%. Sean Dr. McKie who participates in this research says, the doctor can only be through inquiring the patient knows whether they feel pain at present, but too young or old a patient, and the patient suffering from dementia, losing consciousness, often can't provide the accurate answer. For this reason, the medical circle has been making great efforts to develop the pain detecting instrument, the new technology is expected to solve pain and measure the problem finally, offer help in order to treat chronic pain. The new research results are published on the new number one " comprehensive roll of scientific public library " of U.S.A..
