[00:00.00]Critical illnesses could be [00:02.40]diagnosed earlier and we [00:04.26]could be confident that [00:05.90]even the diagnosis of [00:07.54]a complex disease could be [00:09.51]clarified and the disease could [00:11.81]be treated before it becomes fatal. [00:14.66]Supposing a life threatening virus [00:17.61]could be controlled, by inference [00:19.57]viruses would no longer [00:21.44]constitute a threat to our wellbeing. [00:23.85]The concept or idea of people [00:26.58]living to an extremely old age [00:28.44]has been suggested. Will [00:31.39]the consequence of that possibility [00:33.47]be that people could also [00:35.33]maintain their intellect as they age? [00:37.52]Will people be able to [00:40.14]make arrangements to have [00:41.57]their body or its parts [00:43.32]used after they die? [00:45.28]The donation would help others [00:47.47]to have some of [00:49.12]their body parts replaced. [00:50.65]Will people still have [00:53.17]funerals and be buried [00:54.59]in a grave as [00:55.79]is the current custom [00:57.21]or will cremation be [00:58.75]the common practice? [01:00.39]If we wear corrective lenses [01:03.23]now, perhaps our vision [01:04.98]could be improved or restored [01:06.84]through laser surgery. We would [01:09.25]no longer need to wear glasses. [01:11.00]The tragedy of a stroke [01:15.05]and the resulting mental disability [01:17.34]could be prevented if a monitor [01:19.64]could analyze the person’s [01:21.50]condition and recommend changes [01:23.47]in lifestyle or treatment [01:24.78]that could avert a stroke [01:27.51]or a heart attack. [01:28.83]An ambulance equipped with [01:31.78]sophisticated portable medical diagnostic equipment [01:34.96]could have the ability to [01:36.71]assess multiple injuries of [01:38.35]the victim of an accident. [01:40.75]Recovery would be assisted [01:43.60]by the provision of prompt treatment. [01:46.22]The prospect of a joint [01:49.40]that swells, being treated [01:51.48]by a restraint that causes [01:53.23]lack of motion, is not [01:55.09]a new idea, but will a synthetic [01:57.49]joint be used to replace [01:59.68]the jointinstead of being treated [02:01.44]in the current familiar way? [02:05.16]Will replacement of a hip joint [02:06.90]become more commonplace? [02:08.22]Could a doctor operate on [02:10.84]one of our organs [02:12.38]without having to invade our bodies? [02:14.67]Could surgery be performed with [02:17.29]the aid of a small camera? [02:19.04]Will the diameter of [02:21.45]the lens of the camera [02:22.88]be so small that [02:24.63]it would be measured in millimeters? [02:26.48]The opening required to [02:28.35]insert the camera into [02:29.66]our body would be tiny. [02:32.07]Could a microscope be used [02:35.13]in the study of biology to [02:36.55]watch the development of [02:38.08]a specimen of synthetic bacteria [02:40.16]and then the specimen be used [02:42.46]to create a treatment [02:43.99]for the disease being studied? |
