OPHTHALMIC-MICROSURGICAL COMPUTER LOCAL AREA NETWORK FOR VITREORETINAL OPERATIONS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC G06N3/06 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: in an ophthalmic-microsurgical computer local area network for vitreoretinal operations, formatting devices are in form of a radial-annular structure consisting of a single set of automated workstations (AWS), which synchronously or asynchronously functioning, processing, converting, transmitting, analysing, synthesising hierarchical structures of an artificial neural network: diagnosis AWS (DAWS), ophthalmic-microsurgical AWS (OMAWS), subsequent operation stages AWS (SOSAWS), component AWS (CAWS), surgeon's operating unit (SOUAWS), with opposite forward and reverse flow of information in between, where each AWS has at least one neural circuit, interconnected identification units (IU), an interpolation unit (INU), an extrapolation unit (EU), which are the neural network converting and transmitting elements (NNCTE), a decision unit (DU), which is the neural network analysis and synthesis element (NNASE).

EFFECT: simultaneous improvement of accuracy of determination and quality of identifying diagnoses, determining indications for conducting operations, high selectivity when conducting operations, accuracy in determining the sequence of operations, simulating operations, accuracy in choosing the anaesthetic method, accuracy of providing implants and expendable materials, optimisation of flow of information and necessities during vitreoretinal ophthalmic-microsurgical operations.
