I. INTRODUCTION
A large number of accidents and incidents happen every
year in hospitals and as a consequence a number of patients
die or are injured [1]. Some of those are caused by
misdiagnosis of medical instruments. Thus reliability is one
of the most important characteristic for medical instrument,
so here we main to design a medical instrument and verify its Fig. 1. Structure diagram of instrument

to minimize noise such as crosstalk etc. Then a series of
experiments were performed to verify its reliability. III. RESULTS
According to the result of experiments and data analysis, our
instrument was very reliable, sensitive, and stabile. In fig. 2 and fig. 3, this instrument was used to detect a

IV. CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION
In this work, we designed an instrument of spine
disease detector and some methods were token in the circuit
of the instrument to improve the reliability and stability by
eliminating noise. According to the result of above
experiments, it is shown that our instrument has excellent
performance. We mainly paid attention to the design of spine
detector, improving the performance of instrument, and
tested its reliability and stability. Now we have built
cooperation with some hospital such as Shanghai Xinhua
Hospital, and next clinical evaluation will be taken.
