Unit 4

The idea of the human body going through biotechnology and nanotechnology is what caught me with the most interest. When I think of science and technology influencing medicine I instantly think of medical machines such as a CT scan, an MRI, or a X-ray. All these different machines are a way in which the medical field can advance their way of medicine through science and technology.

Above I mentioned several scans that are used in the medical field, in which all of them allow doctors to basically see inside your body. Say for instance you have a broken femur, a X-Ray will show this bone in a matter or its misplacement and the radiologists will notice the difference. This is where you can see the correlation between science and technology which would be the X-Ray machine influencing medicine which is the distinguished broken femur.

After watching the Artificial Intelligence trailer it was interesting to me that the technology we are advanced with today is now becoming suitable for people to be able to make a machine that has emotion. This clearly shows me how the linkage of technology and medicine have combined making a robot that can receive and give emotion to others.
