TSU hosts the first international microsurgery summit
The international microsurgery summit dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the first Tomsk Scientific Research Institute of Microsurgery in Russia under the leadership of Vladimir Beitinger, the Honored Doctor of the Russian Federation, is taking place at three venues at once: at the Microsurgery Research Institute, the TSU Research Library, and the Siberian State Medical University. The program includes demonstration operations, the broadcast of which is available on screens in the halls of TSU Research Library. Also, participants are awaiting training courses from the leading microsurgeons in the world, reports on advanced technologies in microsurgery, and a presentation of the latest equipment.
TSU is greatly associated with the development of medicine and medical materials science, which helps surgeons. One such example is the Victor Gunther School. For about 40 years, the school team has been preparing various materials and products for medicine based on titanium nickelide, a unique material with shape memory and superelasticity. Products from it are used in vascular surgery, during reconstructive operations for cancer patients, and other procedures.
