Re: modern medicine
Certainly nanomachine diagnostics without any other form of support would be dubious (how do they even know where they are?), but 'drug dispenser' nanomachines (presumably based on haemoglobin or the protein shell of a virus) could potentially be useful, as could selective compound absorber versions (presumably slowly releasing whatever was absorbed afterwards, to give the body more time to process whatever it is: could be useful for e.g. caron-monoxide poisoning).Arioch wrote:Micromachines will no doubt become an important part of in-hospital medical treatment (as medical probes are today), carefully directed by doctors (or at least large-scale medical computers), but I'm dubious about their applications in first aid. I don't think you'd want to trust such machines to diagnose and treat an injury on their own; the potential to do more harm than good seems very high to me.

MOUAHAHAHAH!
But i know a lots of people who would pay a fortune to have an OBD on their wife!
but i think they did developed (but not tested on humain) a kind of "hunter seeker" gold plated protein that accumulate on cancerous tissues. Then you just need some microwave to kill and cauterize the tumor
Re: modern medicine
Actually i like it. I have my own Prog on the Laptop, and it works perfectly. If you show up on a sale with that (used cars) you easily safe ten or twenty times the money you spent on it.

Re: modern medicine
Unfortunately no, it was spoken to me from a friend who study in medicine and who happen to have suffered from cancer (but he doing better) So i suppose he did his search, ill ask him if there some raw data somewhere.Trantor wrote:Sounds very interesting.
