Do you remember the Italian neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero, who is planning to perform the world's first human "head-changing" operation next year? After recruiting volunteers who agreed to change their heads, the professor has just announced his own virtual reality system, hoping to adapt patients to their new body that will be replaced in the future, and this experience through virtual reality can help The patient adapts to various psychological changes that can occur.

Professor Sergio Canavero has made up his mind to perform a head-changing operation for the volunteer named Valery Spiridonov next year, and Valery Spiridonov is a Russian educational software company operator with rare spinal muscular atrophy.

According to Professor Sergio Canavero, the whole process of the head-changing operation is very complicated. Spiridonov's head will be operated in an environment between 12 and 15 degrees Celsius, and this temperature will allow him to survive the brain in a state of brain death. And Spiridonov's brain will continue to connect with the new body through the silicone tube arteries and veins. Then Spiridonov's head will be transplanted to a new body.

In order to successfully cut Spiridonov's spinal cord, Professor Sergio Canavero will use a diamond cutter costing up to $200,000 with a minimum cutting accuracy of 1 micron. After this part of the operation is completed, the entire transplant process must be within 1 hour of the outer city, when the blood will re-flow in Spiridonov's brain and body, theoretically slowly return to normal body temperature.

During the surgical preparation process, a US bioengineering company called Inventum Bioengineering created a new virtual reality system that helped Spiridonov adapt to the new body of the future. After a new body, Spiridonov will be able to experience the feeling of walking with the body for the first time. The specific operational details of this virtual reality experience are not yet clear, but Spiridonov will start using the system a few months before the surgery.

"We will use virtual reality technology to provide the world's first patient with a new head to adapt to the new body," said Inventum CEO Alexander Pavlovcik.

Professor Canavero has said that he has successfully tested monkeys and dogs and successfully connected the spinal cord of the test rats. In addition, another co-participant in the operation, Ren Xiaoping, a surgeon from Harbin Medical University, also began testing on 1,000 experimental mice.

However, many experts in the scientific community have expressed their concern about the world's first "head change". Everyone thinks that the probability of successful surgery is very low, and there are even people who worry that Spiridonov will have a mental disorder that has never existed in human history. .

"I will not allow this operation to be carried out in the United States," said Hunt Batjer, president of the American Association of Neurosurgeons. "I don't think there is anything worse than death." So Professor Canavero is still looking for a country that can do this "head-change surgery", and for now, the UK and China are the most likely locations.

As for whether this virtual reality platform can help Spiridonov adapt to the new body, it is actually a follow-up. After all, the main premise is that after the successful surgery, there will be a process of adapting to the new body.
