Medical Center Has Color TV
The first color television to be set up for regular teaching has been installed at the University Medical center. It will be put to use each day in surgical and other teaching.
The new system will supplant black-and-white TV in use two years at the Medical center. It presents a truer-to-life picture of organs and tissues, seen by the surgeon in actual operations. Colors will contrast and reveal differences, for instance, of nerves and arteries.
Monitoring equipment radiates the pictures through a co-axial cable that goes to two teaching auditoriums and a physians' conference room. In these three places are TV receivers with two-way sound connections, making it possible for watchers to ask questions to the surgeon.
An extra installation is a "silent" cable with headsets, which enables teachers during surgery to communicate without being heard by the audience: Teachers using the "silent" cable can offer suggestions and criticisms to the surgeon at work.
Aside from student instruction, color TV will help practicing doctors who attend postgraduate courses at the center.
The color system also will be used when an unusual case is being handled at the center. Signals will call doctors and students to the receivers.
