  • Insertable probe for diagnosis of lesional tissue in real time and method of manufacturing electrode thereof
    Patent number: 10098616
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an insertable probe for diagnosis of lesional tissue in real time. The insertable probe includes a guide needle inserted into the human body and having a hollow shape of a predetermined length, a storage connected to the guide needle, a tissue collection portion collecting a predetermined amount of tissue in the human body and moving the collected tissue to the storage through the guide needle, and an inspection unit inspecting the tissue stored in the storage. A method of manufacturing an electrode using the same is also disclosed.
    Type: Grant

  • Probe and device for detecting abnormality of intervertebral disc
    Patent number: 8900160
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a probe and a device for detecting abnormality of an intervertebral disc. More particularly, the present invention relates to a probe and a device for detecting abnormality of an intervertebral disc that gives vibration stimulation to the inner part of the intervertebral disc and obtains an ultrasonic image in order to sense the abnormality of the intervertebral disc causing discogenic pains and inspects whether the intervertebral disc is abnormal by measuring impedance in the intervertebral disc. The present invention provides a probe for detecting abnormality of an intervertebral disc including: a shaft connector; a vibration generator connected to the shaft connector; and an inspector connected to the vibration generator, wherein the vibration generator vibrates the inspector by using a piezoelectric element and a device for detecting abnormality of an intervertebral disc.
