7. Pacemakers and Life Support Systems

8. Pacemakers Computers to keep the heart beating. Life Support Systems Computers that look after and monitor patients who are in critical life conditions.

9. Drug Research and Development

10. Imaging Technology

11. Remote Operative Technology With the help of video phones And remote technology, a Surgeon would be able to Perform a surgery, using robotics, from the other side of the world!

12. Nanobots!!! Nanobots are molecular scale robots that could be programmed to deliver medicine, destroy specific cells, or even just sit and wait for a problem to occur inside the body!

13. Key-hole Surgery Key-hole surgery are operations performed inside the body without highly invasive surgery. Usually assisted by robotic arms and extenditures.

14. DNA Sequencing Helping to decode the DNA of people and creatures in order to be able to specifically describe the DNA code that causes genetic disease.
