  • TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED DISSECTION AND OBSERVATION STAGE
    Publication number: 20150037836
    Abstract: A temperature controlled tissue dissection and observation stage comprises a central working area and a first temperature controlled station positioned within the central working area. The first temperature controlled station comprises a first temperature controlling element configured to adjust the temperature of the first temperature controlled station. The stage further comprises a user input device in communication with the first temperature controlling element. In one embodiment, the stage comprises four temperature controlled stations. Three of these stations are designed to house petri dishes filled with solutions required for tissue restoration and reconstruction surgeries, and the fourth station is configured to function as a flat cutting surface for the user. In one embodiment, thermostatic control over the system is achieved through the integration of thermoelectric coolers, a microcontroller, and feedback temperature sensors.
