Along with the use of smartphones, the number of patients complaining of serious posture problems and the resulting pain is increasing rapidly. As a result, interest in musculoskeletal disorders and their treatment is also increasing. However, the existing method of diagnosis is to measure directly with a goniometer, or to attach markers directly to the patient's body, resulting in errors. They have the limitation of poor accuracy and efficiency, and the progress of treatment is also not visible. However, these problems have been completely solved.
Inventing Smart Musculoskeletal Measuring Device
An analysis of joint motion is a critical indicator in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders. However, traditional measuring methods use anglers or de-adhesion markers, resulting in poor accuracy and reproducibility. Team Elysium Inc., a startup of IT medical devices in Korea, noticed the discomfort of doctors and patients from the methods, and tried to resolve it. This led to the development of musculoskeletal measuring device that is applied with image processing technology and AI.
This medical device developed by the company scans targets with 3D cameras using Depth and RGB and extracts and analyzes major joint motion information through artificial intelligence. Conventional instruments or marker de-adhesion are not required, because the 3D camera correctly extracts the target's joint position. The accuracy of the extracted joint data is only around ±3° or so in measurement error using the unique algorithm and AI technology developed by the startup. Due to its technology, it is able to maximize reproducibility. All of these processes digitize and present measured values in real time, so that a mere five seconds of diagnosis can best identify a patient's condition.
Providing Connected Digital Healthcare
Another value of Team Elysium Inc.'s medical equipment is connectivity. Basically, doctors can check the diagnostic process, results, and data wherever they want. This is due to a patient management system that is synchronized to multiple PCs. The results of the measurement and the cumulative measurement are immediately generated and printed as a report, and sent to the individual mobile devices of the patient. The report graphically visualizes the extracted data to show at a glance the progress of treatment for imbalances in posture or musculoskeletal disorders. Various methods of motion that suits the patient's condition is provided based on all of these data combined.
Doctors and patients are connected through digital healthcare so that patients can easily view the results of medical examinations they receive anytime, anywhere, and doctors can also receive information linked to them to perform more detailed treatment and management of patients' disease. Furthermore, it goes on to go to hospitals and make a series of procedures to treat diseases like routine, not any ‘special’ event. It is to get rid of the vague pressure people have on diseases and hospitals and to immerse the healing process into everyday life. Reliable relationships between doctors and patients are formed due to transparent and accurate findings as well.
Recently, people are becoming more active in caring about their health and disease, and actively managing and studying. A new medical paradigm that patients study medical knowledge and analyze their data is starting. Team Elysium Inc. offers both the expertise and user-friendly simplicity of a musculoskeletal diagnostic medical device through its technical skills and connectivity, and ultimately presents healthcare services optimized for the emerging paradigm of health care for both physicians and patients, particularly for the musculoskeletal field. The company's technical skills and vision for connected healthcare were first introduced to the world market through CES 2019. Based on this, the startup plans to actively promote the use of other products that are currently under development and actively participate in the realization of digital healthcare.
