From 2020, medical practices have been severely restricted owing to the affect of COVID-19 worldwide. Not too long ago, it was proposed by the Worldwide Society for Experimental Microsurgery and Worldwide Microsurgery Simulation Society that the COVID-19 pandemic and restriction measures utilized have considerably impacted medical training and mandated the event of latest approaches based mostly on the distant academic system.1 Distant diagnostic strategies that enable sufferers to obtain skilled analysis with out immediately visiting a specialised medical establishment are additionally gaining consideration.
Co-authors Kobayashi et al. developed an 8K ultrahigh-definition video system and developed and reported the Micro 8, which allows lymphatic anastomosis with a 0.1-mm-diameter super-resolution microscope.2 The mechanism has the perform of acquiring pseudo 3D via the drop shadow impact created by the ultrahigh definition and deepening the depth of focus by tilting the firing axis.3 Sooner or later, as a heads-up surgical procedure while a wide-area display, it has the potential for broad scientific use in the identical manner as standard microscopes.
From these pressing backgrounds, we’re establishing a brand new try to make use of the aforementioned ultrahigh-definition video microscope for the specialised analysis of oral ailments. The affected person consults a common dentist (Determine 1A) and transmits the 8K picture in 5G to acquire a specialist’s analysis and remedy coverage (Determine 1B). The 8K ultrahigh-definition microscope can challenge an object thinner than hair. As such, it permits detailed analysis to be performed remotely for circumstances that require a microscope or magnifying glass even in scientific observe, comparable to figuring out small caries and cracks within the tooth, preliminary irritation across the periodontal pocket, oral mucosal ailments comparable to stomatitis, diploma of malignancy of oral most cancers and commentary of prognosis. Mixed with the event of 5G and additional communication, it may be anticipated to contribute to fast and correct analysis.

Because the transmission of photographs from this ultrahigh-definition video microscope stays topic to time lag, its utility to telemedicine requires additional enchancment of the picture transmission system and robotic surgical procedure.

Battle of curiosity
The authors declare the next monetary pursuits/private relationships which can be thought of as potential competing pursuits: Eiji Kobayashi is likely one of the inventors of 8K ultrahigh-definition video system (Micro 8). Hiromasa Kawana and Seiji Asoda declare that there isn’t a battle of curiosity.
