5G technology will create many big changes in our lives, including the way we receive medical treatment.
One of the most exciting uses is telesurgery (远程手术). This is when a doctor does surgery (外科手术) on a patient even though they are not in the same place. China has been leading the way in this field. For example, In January 2019, the world's first telesurgery was done in Fujian. Using 5G, a doctor controlled robotic arms to do surgery on a test animal In March, China's first brain surgery was completed by a doctor who did on a patient 3, 000 miles away. In August, robots guided by Beijing doctors did a test surgery in three different places at the same time. These things couldn't take place without 5G The high speed of 5G means there is no lag (滞后) between a doctor's movements in one place and robots, in another.
5G will also make health care easier. Before receiving treatment, patients will be able to make HD video call (高清视频电话) with their doctors. The doctors will be able to advise patients who can't visit a hospital in person. Patients can also put on wearable device (设备) that can send information in real-time to doctors. This allows doctors to monitor patients from their homes.
5G technology will make sure that everyone can get good health care, When 5G is fully used in the medical field, we will have a world where telesurgery and home health care become common.
