Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies technology, and in particular to a tool for measuring breast volume during breast cancer reconstruction surgery. Background Technology

[0002] In breast cancer reconstruction surgery, accurately measuring the volume of the removed breast tissue is crucial for surgical success. Commonly used measurement methods include anatomical measurement, water displacement, and three-dimensional scanning technology. Among various measurement methods such as MRI / CT imaging, ultrasound measurement, and bioimpedance analysis, the water replacement method is the most accurate and easiest to perform. However, clinically, there is currently a lack of a precise, convenient, and sterile water replacement measurement tool specifically designed for breast cancer reconstruction surgery. Existing measurement tools suffer from inaccuracies and difficulties in sterilization, causing numerous inconveniences to the surgical procedure and affecting surgical outcomes.

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, researchers need to develop a breast volume measurement tool for breast reconstruction surgery. This tool should be simple in structure, sterile, and accurate, making it easy for surgeons to measure the volume of breast tissue removed, thus improving surgical precision and resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing outcome for patients after breast reconstruction. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a breast volume measurement tool during breast cancer reconstruction surgery, so as to solve the problems of insufficient accuracy, complex operation, and inability to meet aseptic requirements of existing measurement tools in breast cancer reconstruction surgery.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: It includes a measuring cup body, a handle, and a fixing hook. The measuring cup body is a cylindrical glass cup with a bottom diameter of 9cm and a height of 11.5cm. The measuring cup body is made of high borosilicate glass, and its surface is printed with high-temperature graduation lines. The minimum graduation value is 0ml, the maximum value is 500ml, and the graduation span is 10ml. The handle is located on the outer side of the measuring cup body, is semi-circular in shape, and both ends of the handle are fixed to the measuring cup body. The fixing hook is fixed to the bottom center of the measuring cup body and is a barb made of high borosilicate glass.

[0006] Overall Structure: This measuring tool is shaped like a measuring cup and made of high borosilicate glass. High borosilicate glass is characterized by its high strength and high toughness, capable of withstanding significant pressure and impact without easily breaking. It also remains stable during high-temperature sterilization, preventing deformation and ensuring the durability and stability of the measuring tool. Furthermore, the excellent transparency of high borosilicate glass allows doctors to clearly observe the fluid and breast tissue within the measuring cup during use, facilitating accurate measurements. Size specifications: The cup opening diameter is designed to be 9cm and the height is 11.5cm. This size is convenient for surgeons to operate and ensures that the liquid will not easily spill during the measurement process. Scale accuracy: The scale is accurate to 10ml, and the measuring range is 500ml. This accuracy meets the precise requirements for measuring breast tissue volume in breast cancer reconstruction surgery. It covers common measurement ranges without being too dense to be easily distinguishable. Doctors can accurately determine the amount of tissue to be removed or filled, thereby improving the precision of the surgery.

[0007] Comfortable grip: The hand handle on the outside of the measuring cup effectively helps the operator pour the liquid. Unique Design: A retaining hook is designed at the bottom of the measuring cup. When measuring breast tissue volume, the breast tissue may float on the surface of the water, affecting the accuracy of the measurement. The retaining hook design effectively prevents the breast tissue from floating to the surface, making the measurement results more accurate and reliable.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model's breast volume measurement tool during breast cancer reconstruction surgery are as follows: High-precision measurement: With a scale accurate to 10ml and a volume range of 500ml, it can provide doctors with accurate breast tissue volume data, which helps to develop more precise surgical plans and improve the patient's postoperative aesthetics.

[0009] Clean and sterile: The high borosilicate glass material can be sterilized by high-temperature steam, ensuring a sterile environment during surgery and reducing the risk of infection. At the same time, the glass material is simple and convenient to clean. 3. Convenient to operate: The reasonable cup diameter, bottom barb and hand handle design make it more convenient for doctors to operate during surgery and improve surgical efficiency.

[0010] 4. High visibility: The excellent transparency of high borosilicate glass allows doctors to clearly observe the contents of the measuring cup, facilitating accurate reading of the scale and manipulation of breast tissue. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Referring to the accompanying drawings, this utility model discloses a breast volume measurement tool for breast reconstruction surgery, comprising a measuring cup body 1, a handle 2, and a fixing hook 3. The measuring cup body 1 is a cylindrical glass cup with a bottom diameter of 9 cm and a height of 11.5 cm. The measuring cup body 1 is made of high borosilicate glass, and its surface is printed with high-temperature graduation lines. The minimum graduation value is 0 ml, the maximum value is 500 ml, and the graduation span is 10 ml. The handle 2 is located on the outer side of the measuring cup body 1 and is semi-circular in shape, with both ends fixed to the measuring cup body 1. The fixing hook 3 is fixed to the center of the bottom of the measuring cup body 1 and is a barb made of high borosilicate glass.

[0013] How to use this utility model: This utility model discloses a breast volume measurement tool for breast cancer reconstruction surgery. In use, it is first sterilized by high-temperature steam to ensure sterility. During the breast cancer reconstruction surgery, an appropriate amount of sterile liquid is injected into the measuring cup body 1 to a certain mark. Then, the breast tissue is fixed using the bottom fixing hook 3, ensuring it is completely submerged in the liquid. The volume of the breast tissue is accurately determined by reading the mark on the measuring cup body 1 at this point and comparing the readings before and after the mark. The liquid can be easily poured out by holding the handle 2.

[0014] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any simple modifications to the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
