TR TR DESCRIPTION SENSOR MECHANISM THAT FINDS THE AREA WHERE EPIDURAL ANESTHESIA IS PERFORMED Technological Field: This invention is related to the sensor mechanism that finds the area where epidural anesthesia is performed, which can be used to detect the structure of the spine and find the desired vertebra or vertebrae in the treatment of spine-related disorders, especially in applications such as epidural anesthesia. Known Status of the Technique: Today, there are many disorders and diseases related to the spine. For the treatment of these diseases, it may be necessary to intervene in the entire spine or in certain areas. For example, epidural anesthesia is applied through the lumbar vertebrae in the lumbar region of the spine. During the procedure, the patient sits in a sitting position and leans forward so that his spine is visible. The specialist physician determines the area by examining it with his hand. In more extensive procedures, x-rays etc. Help is taken from vehicles. "Method for Determining the Structural Component of Spinal Deformation in Idiopathic Scoliosis" is described in the utility model application numbered UAU201307031U. The invention is a method for determining the structural component of the spinal deformation in idiopathic scoliosis, the condition of the intervetebral discs in this region, and the X-ray picture of the deformed part of the spine when the patient is in a supine position, and an X-ray picture is taken at maximum exposure. The resulting x-ray picture of the deformation on the male side of the patient's body reveals the proximal and distal end of the main curvature of the vertebrae and the location of the upper end plate of the proximal end of the body of the main curvature. The vertebral end plate is located proximally with respect to the lower adjacent vertebral body and the major curvature of the distal end of the lower end plate of the vertebral body is such that it is located distally with respect to the upper end of the plate adjacent to the vertebral body and if the said plates are respectively parallel to each other or at an angle between them If deformation is detected on the concave side of the open vertebra, the main curvature of the vertebra located between the proximal and distal ends is determined as a structural component of the vertebra. In the patent application numbered EP2609573A1, "Method and Device for Dynamically Determining the Position and Direction of the Bone Elements of the Spine" is described. The invention relates to internal imaging, in particular radiological imaging by digitizing 2D radiographs of the spine, and a method for dynamically determining the back of the spine by external 3D imaging. Calculations are made on the body of the person in question and a calculation tool. According to the invention, in the first step, t, the relationships of the vertebrae with each other and with respect to the dorsal surface are calculated, and then a dynamic mechanical model of the spine and equations for the internal stresses on the spine and the interactions between the spine and the dorsal surface are determined. In the second stage t+1, 3D images of the outer surface of the subject's back are produced. Above, methods and devices to detect the condition of the spine and vertebrae for spine-related disorders are mentioned. These are generally performed by manual examination by the doctor. The devices and methods produced for this purpose make calculations by using various images of the spine and in this way reveal the structure of the spine. However, the vertebrae, which are the structural units of the spine, must be immediately determined on the patient and reported to the doctor. The methods and devices are not suitable for this situation. As a result, a new technology is needed that can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above. Description of the invention: This invention is a sensor mechanism that detects the area where epidural anesthesia is performed, which can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above, and its feature is; It is placed on the patient's back, it is fixed thanks to the gel surface and the sensor efficiency increases, the spine structure and vertebrae are detected with the sensor, it has a touch panel, the application is simple, and it provides instant feedback with LED lights. The invention is placed on the patient's back. This process is very simple and can be easily done before application. The gel surface that forms the front surface of the body ensures that the body does not slip and the sensors work more efficiently. Thanks to the sensors, the patient's spinal structure and vertebrae are detected instantly. After the desired vertebra is entered from the touch panel, the LED lights in that area shine and inform the doctor about the area. Especially when a procedure such as epidural anesthesia is to be performed, the LED lights corresponding to the lumbar region shine and the doctor does not need to examine it manually. Thanks to the easy fixing of the parts that make up the invention, it is easy to install and costs are low thanks to the short assembly time. Additionally, the invention has a robust structure. Description of Drawings: The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the features of the invention will be more clearly understood and appreciated, but the purpose of this is not to limit the invention to these particular embodiments. On the contrary, it is intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalences of the invention that may be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It should be understood that the details shown are for the sole purpose of illustrating preferred embodiments of the present invention and are presented for the purpose of providing the most useful and easily understandable description of both the embodiment of the methods and the rules and conceptual features of the invention. In these drawings; Figure 1 is the perspective view of the system. Figure 2 is the perspective view of the system. The figures that will help understand this invention are numbered as indicated in the attached picture and are given below with their names. Disclosure of References: l. Body 2. Gel Surface 3. Sensor 4. LED Light. Touch Panel Description of the Invention: The invention consists of a body (l) that is made of flexible silicone material and placed on the patient's back from end to end, with the upper end just below the skull at the beginning of the spine, a gel surface (2) that forms the front part of the body (l) in contact with the patient's back, a gel sensor (3) that detects the vertebrae located on the surface (2) and under the body (l) starting from the Cl vertebra under the skull, multiple LED lights (4) positioned on the back surface of the body (1) and control of the body (1) and the sensor (3). It has a touch panel (5) where the searched vertebra or vertebra group is entered. The invention has an LED light (4) in which the part corresponding to the region of the vertebra whose code is entered on the touch screen (5) lights up after the sensor (3) detects the spine. The invention has a gel surface (2) that prevents the body (1) from slipping when placed on the patient's back and ensures good functioning of the sensor (3). Detailed Explanation of the Invention: The parts that make up the invention are basically; body (l), gel surface (2), sensor (3), LED light (4) and touch panel (5). It has a body (l) made of flexible silicone material. The body (l) is placed on the patient's back, with its upper end just below the skull and at the beginning of the spine. There is a gel surface (2) on the part of the body (1) that contacts the patient's back. The gel surface (2) both prevents the body (l) from sliding off the patient's back and makes it easier for the sensor (3) on it to detect the spine. When the sensor (3) body (l) is placed on the patient's back, it detects the Cl vertebra at the top of the spine and detects the other vertebrae downwards accordingly. In this way, the location of the patient's vertebrae will be precise. There are multiple LED lights (4) arranged from top to bottom on the back surface of the body (1). There is a touch panel (5) connected to the body (l) with a cable. The code of the patient's sought vertebra is entered from the touch panel (5). In line with the entered code, the sensor (3) scans the patient's spine and finds the correct vertebra. The LED light (4) corresponding to the area where the vertebra is located turns on and informs the doctor. Thus, the vertebra or spinal area to be treated is determined. TR TR
