Optic fibers can be made into very thin and flexible strands. Because of this property this can be used in healing field for discrete diagnoses. These strands can be inserted to discrete part of the body, together with blood vessels even lungs. This field of the healing science which uses only a small incision for rehabilitation is called as Endoscopy. In endoscope instrument is made like that it will carry two bundle of optic fibers in which one will provided with light other one transmits light back from the body which is reflected from the tissue. The reflected image will supply detailed image of the affected tissue. Endoscopes are designed agreeing to the need of the use. Now a day, the endoscope can be used to examine knees shoulders and joints.
Arthroscope is a right and cylinder like instrument with a series of lens and bundles of optic fibers which has a size of 1/12 -- 1/5 of an inch. It is used to examine joints like knee joints, shoulders etc. Arthroscope will be inserted into the joint through a small incision and do all this examination. A light is then transmitted through the optic fibers to illuminate the joints which will help the doctor to examine a joint thoroughly. The field of healing science which use this technique for prognosis called as Arthroscopy.
The optic fibers which used in the Arthroscope has multiple advantages. It is also potential to quantum temperature. Arthroscope is also helpful to perform surgical operation through incision. Arthroscopy is commonly used to treat torn cartilage in knee. This is done by manufacture two incisions in the knee. One incision is to insert optic fiber in the Anthroscope. Other one for inserting surgical instruments to take off for cartilage. As the arthroscopic surgical operation is done through a small incision, the patient perceive less pain and the healing time is much less compared to other methods of surgery.
In healing field the optic fiber is also used in the prognosis of blood chemistry. optic fibers should be inserted into the blood vessels to get the correct and quick reading. The physicians are using optic fibers to direct the intense laser light, which is useful to stop bleeding and to burn abnormal tissues. In the rehabilitation field fiber optics is a leading part. The fiber optics field is developing very rapidly and it is producing more innovative instruments which is helpful to prognosis of the diseases in healing field.
