Want to know the latest in medical technology, or where to look?  Look no further!  Visit Porsha's Medical Scope!

Dr. Porsha Johnson my niece, holds her Doctorates in Medical Research.  She will be bringing us some valuable findings in the field of medicine in the months coming forward!  Stay tuned!

Remember Knowledge is Power, my people parish for lack of it. 

Medicine is changing fast. The state of healthcare today will soon be outdated by new technologies.

Technologies of the future?

Diabetic patients will soon be wearing a monitoring device on their wrist which checks glucose levels and raises an alarm when levels are too high or low.

Ultimately, diabetics will have a glucose monitoring sensor implanted under the skin and an internal insulin reservoir that automatically adjusts insulin doses.

New forms of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) will detect dyslexia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia and manic depression.

Toilets will no longer be passive but will analyze urine (and perhaps stool) samples and, if necessary, automatically send a report to a user's doctor.

Radiosurgery, in the treatment of brain tumors, cerebral vascular malformations (aneurysms of the brain blood vessels), Parkinson's disease and epilepsy will be developed.

Minimally invasive hi-tech surgery will become the norm.

Robots and More

Robots will be deployed in hospitals, running central supply services, filling requests and orders in the hospital pharmacy and carrying out a great range of tasks.

Xenotransplantation (of organs and tissues from animals into humans) will be available on a large-scale by the end of the coming decade.

A biochip photosensor will be implanted in the eye as an artificial retina for patients with macular degeneration of the eye.

Electronic noses will detect and differentiate the odors of growing bacteria and instantly identify the bacteria causing ear, nose and throat infections.

Auditory sensor implants that bypass non-functioning parts of the hearing mechanism will help the deaf to hear.

New wheelchairs will enable users to go up and down stairs, reach for items on high shelves, and talk to others who are standing at eye level.

In-patients will be implanted with sensors when they are admitted to do 40 or more lab tests.
