Want a glimpse of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people involved in patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient—no matter where he or she may be.
Online doctors offering advice based on standardized symptoms are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis (telemedicine) will be based on real physiological (生理的) data from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using an off-the-shelf (现成的) PDA (personal data assistance) such as a Palm Pilot plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly feasible to transmit a patient’s vital signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment in a first-aid kit (急救包), the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.
Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster response—especially after earthquakes. Overall, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and expertise.
But there is one problem. Bandwidth is the limiting factor for transmitting medical images a-round the world—CT scans being one of the biggest bandwidth consumers. Communications satellites may be able to cope with the short-term needs during disasters such as earthquakes, wars or famines. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and the third-generation mobile phones for the future of distributed medical intelligence.
Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should usher in (迎来) an era when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, expert opinion and diagnosis are common.
All the following statements are true EXCEPT that______.
选项
A、it is now feasible to transmit a patient’s vital signs over telephone
B、flood is not among the disasters mentioned in the passage
C、the trend in applying telemedicine is toward providing global access to medical data
D、telemedicine is being used by many medical teams as a tool for disaster response
答案
D
解析
本题是一道判断是非题。问下面哪个句子是错误的。针对四个选项,利用查阅式阅读法,结合原文内容,我们发现文章第三段提到,其他医疗技术小组正在尝试将远距离医疗的方法应用于乡间的医疗服务,而且,至少有一个小组想使用远距离医疗作为应对灾难——如地震的工具。因此,本题的正确答案应是D“许多医疗小组正在使用远程医疗方法作为应对灾难的工具”。A的内容可在文章第二段第三句和第四句话中找到提示信息;B的内容可参阅第四段第三句话;C的内容可在第三段第三句中找到相关信息。
