Telemedicine
What is telemedicine?
Telemedicine is the
remote diagnosis and
treatment of patients
by means of
telecommunications
technology
Acquiring medical data (like medical images) and then transmitting this data
to a doctor at a convenient time is an example of:

What is artificial intelligence?
• Artificial Intelligence is
The theory and
development of computer
systems able to perform
tasks that normally
require human
intelligence, such as
visual perception, speech
recognition, decisionmaking, and translation
between languages
A distance runner uses a right prosthetic leg. The leg is able to remember the
pace set during practice and adjust setting automatically depending on race
circumstances. This type of telemedicine would be an example of:

What is bioinformatics?
• Bioinformatics is the
science of using
computers, databases,
and math to organize
and analyze large
amounts of biological,
medical, and health
information. Information
may come from many
sources, including
patient statistics, tissue
specimens, genetics
research, and clinical
trials.
A pacemaker is designed to monitor and assist a weakened heart. It can provide
feedback to a computer in a remote location. This type of technology is
characterized as:

How do you use organized thought, contemporary
technologies, and human creativity and curiosity to better
understand the natural world?
• There are various
examples of humans
using the above
factors to better
understand the
natural world. Some
examples include:
identification of
planets around other
stars, the Human
Genome Project, and
superconductors
How do scientific discoveries such as the identification of planets around other
stars, the Human Genome Project, and superconductors exemplify effective and
focused research? They are examples of:

stars, the Human Genome Project, and superconductors exemplify effective and
focused research? They are examples of:
A.
Using organized thought, contemporary technologies, and human
creativity and curiosity to better understand the natural world.
B.
Lone scientists working in isolation to make discoveries about the
natural world.
C.
Scientists making observations of natural events without the aid of
advanced technologies.
D.
Accidental discoveries that happened because scientists were
focused on one problem and instead discovered something completely unexpected.
What is robotics?
• Robotics is the
branch of
technology that
deals with the
design,
construction,
operation, and
application of
robots.
Many surgeries in the brain or heart required the use of sophisticated
devices that can be controlled remotely. Being able to design these type
of devices would require an understanding of:
