Experienced surgeons have developed a “feel”
A polymeric film which can be transparent, semi-transparent or opaque, that consists of the polymeric film and a backing of some sort that adheres to the skin of the patient, but can be easily removed to reposition and re-adhered if necessary.

This handheld airbrush stem cell sprayer pen is used to selectively airbrush spray OR INJECT stem cells, other cells, and other ingredients onto (or into) injured human tissues, incubating cultured living tissues, and dissolvable 3D preprinted scaffolds for growing living tissues in thin film layers.
This is a conceptual design for a nanomotor driven attachment used in low flow shunts. The motor itself is driven from natural proteins found in the body,
