11 Read the four texts about different
medical technologies. Match texts A-D
with questions 1-5. One text has two
matching questions.
Medical Technologies for the 21st Century
A Virtual Reality
Virtual reality is not limited to the world of gaming,
it has now been adopted into the world of
medicine and healthcare for use by doctors and
patients alike. A key use for surgeons is to help
them plan and prepare for complex operations.
Virtual reality enables them to create a 3D map,
or visualisation, from scans of a patient and
explore procedures in great depth before making
any real incisions into the body. This approach
allows scientists to predict potential problems in
relative safety and make decisions about
treatments without putting the patient’s life at risk.
Virtual reality is also being used to help patients,
particularly those undergoing stressful and painful
treatments but who want to avoid or are unable to
use conventional methods of pain relief. The
headsets are worn during surgery or while the
patient receives treatment, for example during
chemotherapy with the aim of helping the patient
relax. Whilst still in its infancy as a method of pain
relief, research shows very promising results.
B E-health
For some time now it’s been very common to ‘ask
Google’ when you have a minor, or major,
medical complaint and this can lead to some
inaccurate self-diagnosis and a great deal of
stress. Since the year 2000 e-health has been
a growing phenomenon which aims to harness
this desire for easy, online healthcare. Rather
than technological medical advancements,
e-health is more about delivering information,
care and health services. So rather than checking
symptoms online, e-health allows a patient to
communicate with a doctor via an app or online

Group B
platform getting instant advice and diagnoses.
Whilst it is currently limited to developed
countries, there is huge potential for it to improve
medical care around the world and many
organisations are now looking at how this could
be done. One area that has particularly benefitted
is mental health, due to the fact it is low cost and
offers patients a level of anonymity which is often
a barrier to sufferers seeking help. However, as
with anything there are a number of drawbacks.
Privacy and confidentiality are hard to guarantee
and in terms of monitoring and controlling the
quality of services being offered much still has to
be done. Many professionals are now calling for
greater regulation to ensure patients are not
tricked into receiving sub-standard treatment.
C Wearable health technology
The use of wearables for patients is rising rapidly,
with it becoming common practice to monitor
patients’ vital information via digital devices.
These are attached to the patient’s chest and
record minute by minute their condition. If a
patient needs attention the device will alert nurses
via an app, allowing them to prioritise which
patients need attention most urgently rather than
simply doing the rounds. Since these devices can
be worn at home, it allows patients suffering from
long term illnesses to return home where
previously they would have had to stay in
hospital. The devices give them the confidence
that any issues will be picked up early enough for
them to seek medical attention in time. Surgeons
are also becoming increasingly likely to use
wearables such as Google Glass whilst in the
operating theatre. Surgeons can access x-rays
and scans via the device without leaving the
operating table. Previously, they potentially would
have had to go to a separate room.
D 3D printing
3D printing has been around since the 1980s and
is used across a variety of industries but medicine
is benefitting more and more every year.
Bioprinting, where printers use real tissue rather
than plastic or metal, allow researchers to study
living tissue and organs in a lab cheaply and
ethically. In the future, this technology may be

used to print new organs for transplant patients.

Prosthetic limbs are also being made using this
technology, which allows for a great degree of
personalisation and precision. Limbs can be
made to the exact specifications of the patient
and these often prove to be more functional for
the wearer. Finally, 3D printers can be used to
make pills that combine a number of different
drugs. This is extremely useful for people who
have to take a complicated combination of pills,
sometimes at different times of the day and in
different combinations. Helpful not only for
forgetful patients but people with busy lives who
want to live unconstrained by their medical
conditions.

Which medical technology:

1 helps healthcare professionals focus on

the most serious problems first?

2 could reduce the quality of care patients

receive as well as improve it?

3 allows for greater preparation before

procedures take place?

4 is changing the way medication is

administered?

5 is expected to have a global impact in the

coming years?
