Transcript of Breif History of Medical Technology
Medical Technologyy Diagnosis & Therapeutic application of science & technology
to manage health conditions.
y Application: information, devices, procedures; doing highly
sophisticated solutions to solve medical problems: prevent disease, and manage health conditions.
y Challenges of diagnostic medicine; basic science: biology,
chemistry, clinical science career.
