Medical Automation Gets FDA Approval

[Arthur Hanson]

Finally, medical automation is getting FDA approval. Medical costs are driving the US into bankruptcy at an alarming rate and automation is the best solution out there. Semis and nanotechnology from the semi industry not only offer far more and larger cost reductions, but greatly improve quality and consistency while building a knowledge base to improve medical outcomes using big data. Vinod Khosla maintains we can eliminate half the doctors, eliminating any shortage and achieve better results. This particular technology reads an image in seconds rather than the half hour a medical person takes. Overcoming the regulatory hurtle is the critical step and this is but one large step. Just like the tech revolution dramatically lowered costs and increased quality in many fields, it is now time to do the same in medical, before we go bankrupt. This is among the largest opportunities the semi and tech sector has ever had the challenge to tackle. This should provide a long and large ramp that will keep the semi and tech sector busy for a very long time. The rate of change in automating everything will only pick up speed with the "Great Acceleration" that is spreading to every corner of our world.
