研究

妙佑医疗国际的科学家、医生和外科医生提出了肝脏移植的见解和创新理念,让移植更安全并适合更多的患者。他们积极参与肝移植相关各方面医疗状况的实验室研究、临床试验及其他研究。

下面是一些示例:

  • 生物人工肝脏。该创新技术帮助患者从容应对肝脏移植的等待过程。妙佑医疗国际的医生和研究人员开发的新型生物人工肝脏使用猪肝的活细胞来过滤患者血液,整个过程类似于肾脏透析。该设备正在接受测试,之后将推广至医疗中心和医院。
  • 磁共振弹性成像。该创新技术由妙佑医疗国际的医生和研究人员研发,是一种用于检测肝瘢痕形成的非侵入性方法。这种技术未来有望减少肝病患者进行肝活检的需要。
  • 免疫抑制药物。该研究考察了肝肾移植中抗体介导损伤的影响,以及如何进行多器官移植才能产生更好的效果。
  • 充分扩大器官捐献者群体。移植医生发现,相较于脑死亡患者的捐献器官,心源性死亡患者的捐献器官能为肝癌患者带来同样的有益效果。
  • 肝病的细胞疗法。这项研究为几种肝病提供了潜在的新疗法,并有可能提高肝移植的成功率。
  • 分诊系统。妙佑医疗国际研究人员最先提出、设计并测试了终末期肝病(MELD)的模型。该系统根据患者状况的严重程度及其需要移植的紧急程度,对等待移植的患者进行优先排序。
