Core Viewpoint - The introduction of a drone delivery system at Shanghai Ruijin Hospital allows for the rapid transportation of pathological specimens from operating rooms to the pathology department, significantly improving the efficiency of obtaining intraoperative frozen pathology reports. Group 1: Innovation in Medical Logistics - Shanghai Ruijin Hospital has pioneered a "window-to-window" delivery model using drones to transport surgical specimens, addressing logistical challenges within the hospital [1][4] - This drone system enables the transportation of specimens over distances of several hundred meters, which previously required time-consuming manual delivery [3][4] Group 2: Impact on Surgical Procedures - The use of drones has reduced the average transportation time for specimens, which previously took over 20 minutes, allowing surgeons to make more informed decisions during operations [3][4] - The current drone delivery system can reliably transport common tumor specimens, such as those from the thyroid and breast, weighing up to 200 grams [5]
