问题     Richard Satava, program manager for advanced medical technologies, has been a driving force in bringing virtual reality to medicine, where computers create a "virtual" or simulated environment for surgeons and other medical practitioners.
    "With virtual reality we’ll be able to put a surgeon in every trench," said Satava. He envisaged a time when soldiers who are wounded fighting overseas are put in mobile surgical units equipped with computers. The computers would transmit images of the soldiers to surgeons back in the U. S.. The surgeons would look at the soldiers through virtual reality helmets that contain a small screen displaying the image of the wound. The doctors would guide robotic instruments in the battlefield mobile surgical unit that operate on the soldier.
    Although Satava’s vision may be years away from standard operating procedure, scientists are progressing toward virtual reality surgery. Engineers at an international organization in California are developing a tele-operating device. As surgeons watch a three-dimensional image of the surgery, they move instruments that are connected to a computer, which passes their movements to the robotic instruments that perform the surgery. The computer provides feedback to the surgeon on force, textures, and sound.
    These technological wonders may not yet be part of the community hospital setting but increasingly some of the machinery is finding its way into civilian medicine. At Wayne State University Medical School, surgeon Lucia Zamorano takes images of the brain from computerized scans and uses a computer program to produce a 3D image. She can then maneuver the 3D image on the computer screen to map the shortest, least invasive surgical path to the tumor. Zamorano is also using technology that attaches a probe to surgical instruments so that she can track their positions. While cutting away a tumor deep in the brain, she watches the movement of her surgical tools in a computer graphics image of the patient’s brain taken before surgery.
    During these procedures—operations that are done through small cuts in the body in which a miniature camera and surgical tools are maneuvered—surgeons are wearing 3D glasses for a better view. And they are commanding robot surgeons to cut away tissues more accurately than human surgeons can.
    Satava says, "We are in the midst of a fundamental change in the field of medicine."
Richard Satava has visions of______.
选项 A、using a remote-control technique to treat wounded soldiers fighting overseas
B、wounded soldiers being saved by doctors wearing virtual reality helmets on the battlefield
C、wounded soldiers being operated on by specially trained surgeons
D、setting up mobile surgical units overseas
答案A
解析 细节题。题目问的是理查德．萨塔瓦的愿望是什么。首先我们定位到原文，第三段中详述了他的愿景，电脑输送受伤画面，医生做出判断后由电脑操作手术。因此选项A“用遥控技术进行手术”正好是那句话的同义替换，所以为正确答案；选项B“受伤的战士由戴着虚拟现实头盔的医生进行治疗”；选项C“受伤战士由经过特殊训练的医生进行手术”及选项D“在海外设置移动医学站”，均与原文不符。故选A。
