Professor Shisheng He and his team at the TenthPeople’s Hospital of Tongji University developed the V-shapeBichannel Endoscopy System (VBE). As a brand new uniportalbichannel endoscope unlike other existing endoscopes in clinical application, the VBE allows safe and efficient transforaminal lumbar decompression and interbody fusion to be performed under real-time and full-time endoscopic monitoring.
