Summary "Massive breakthroughs are changing the face of medicine and healthcare. In addition to the benefits of super-smart computers that can learn, medical researchers and doctors are beginning to reap the rewards of robots that perform surgeries. There have also been advances in nanotechnology-in which doctors heal by injecting microscopic particles into the body; using 3D printing to make replacements for failing bladders and other organs; and telemedicine, in which physicians can monitor and operate on patients using remote apps"-- Provided by publisher
