New Technology is Changing the Way That We Treat Our Health

In this series, we introduce some of the exciting new technology in computer science which makes interesting and new jobs available. In previous articles, we have reviewed three such technologies: virtual reality, 3D mapping, and big data. Virtual Reality (VR) improves the user's experience by creating realistic and immersive digital content. It has become extremely popular and used in a wide variety of situations, from gaming to business to transportation. VR can be used for engineering, art design, virtual tours, entertainment, education, and social science.

The new technology in computer science, artificial intelligence, is creating new opportunities in business and even giving the possibility of a better quality of life. AI is used for a wide variety of tasks in a business like composing search engines, speech recognition, collaborative decision making, computer vision, and data analytics. Data analytics uses large-scale structured data to guide future decisions and activities.

It also can help predict behavior, helping companies take appropriate action in difficult situations. Another advantage is that it can identify trends before they happen. This is done by gathering and comparing large amounts of data. This allows quick identification of anomalies and abnormalities. It also identifies patterns in massive amounts of data, allowing researchers to draw general conclusions from large amounts of facts.

Humans and other animals have developed incredible cognitive abilities over time. Today, researchers are studying how these brains operate. Researchers have already demonstrated the ability to use thought, memory, language, and reasoning. Even more impressive is their ability to understand and remember things that they have not seen, heard, or read.

Internet users around the world are faced with an increasing number of technological risks. Spyware and viruses can invade computers, stealing confidential information. Malicious people have exploited flaws in the coding that controls most systems. Even businesses have had some of their software compromised for malicious reasons.

One area that is experiencing new technology is the health care industry. New software has been developed to allow more detailed and faster assessments of a patient's condition. Electronic health records eliminate the need for long hours of manual record keeping. They can provide instant information relevant to a patient's health needs, such as blood pressure, glucose levels, and heart rate. Many physicians are using this new technology to create more personalized care plans for their patients.

Computer forensics is another field that is seeing new applications. Professionals are using digital forensics to investigate crimes and protect victims. Digital forensics does not require a formal education. In fact, anyone who knows how to operate a computer, including regular office workers, can perform these investigations.

Technology is only becoming more advanced, and there is no sign of it slowing down. We now have to be aware of all the applications that new technology is making possible. We also have to stay on top of what new gadgets are coming onto the market.

We recently saw a new application on the popular social networking site Twitter. It is used to analyze large amounts of data about any person, including medical records. It is possible to scan through thousands of records, and find anything from court records, to business records, to personal information.

In addition to Twitter, there are other new gadgets on the market that use digital technology to keep track of patients. One such system is the Smart Hospitals Digital Electronic Health Record or SERT. Sert is ideal for doctors who want to access patient medical information when they need to. It doesn't matter if a patient is in the hospital, a doctor is out of town, or a patient is at home.

Some systems actually combine traditional email and electronic medical records. In fact, many systems allow doctors and medical staff to input text directly into an electronic medical record. This is only the beginning of new technology. The next wave of applications will likely be something like RFID tags and readers.

All of these new technologies and applications are ushering in a new era of healthcare. No longer are doctors restricted to certain forms of technology. In fact, many hospitals are integrating all of the technology they have into one cohesive system. Soon, the entire world will have access to a single database for everything from prescription drugs to medical history.
