核磁共振成像首次捕捉嬰兒降生瞬間

Doctors at a Berlin hospital have made a medical breakthrough after capturing live MRI images of the miracle of birth. The pictures, taken after a 24-year-old mother agreed to give birth inside a magnetic-resonance imaging machine, could provide valuable new insights into the birthing process and save lives in the future.
　　來自德國柏林的醫生Ernst Beinde運用核磁共振技術，經過一位24歲懷孕準媽媽的允許，首次捕捉到了母親產子瞬間圖像。這一張珍貴的核磁共振成像堪稱人類醫學史上的奇蹟，人們首次清楚地看到了“嬰兒降生在這個世界上的全過程”，只是這個過程不再是在產房中，而是在母親的子宮內。據悉，該圖片的價值非比尋常，有可能在未來拯救無數人的生命。

Gynaecologist Ernst Beinder at Berlin's Charité Hospital said the birth proceeded normally and the machine filmed all the movements and processes that went on inside the were even able to use the machine to monitor the baby's heart beat. 'We can now see all the details we previously could only study with probes,' he said. 'These images are fascinating and proved yet again that every birth is a small miracle,' said Beinder.

“攝影師”柏林婦產醫生Ernst Beinde說：“這次是一次再普通不過的生產過程，只是拍攝到了在母親子宮內部的動態畫面而已。”此外，機器還檢測到了嬰兒在子宮內的心跳聲，在以前這些都幾乎不可能的事情。醫生Ernst Beinde拍攝完這組圖片，仍舊“沉浸”在喜悅之中，他不得不讚嘆：“核磁共振成像表明每一個生命都是奇蹟！”

Mr Guettler told Mail Online: 'The mother was in the MR for 45 minutes for the second stage of labour. This is from the full dilatation of the cervix until the head of the baby comes out of the birth canal. 'We plan to scan at least five mother mothers this way to gain more insights into possible pregnancy complications.'Both mother and baby are said to be healthy and doing well.'

除了讚歎生命來之不易，不得不感慨這位肯爲醫學擔當風險的母親的偉大精神，據醫生Ernst Beinde說，母親在第二階段的分娩過程中還堅持待在覈磁共振機器里長達45分鐘，直到嬰兒的頭部伸出產道了纔出來。感謝上帝，母子平安！
