Imagine you go in for an x-ray of your hurt hand, and instead of being greeted with a person it's a robot telling you to place your hand on the table. You’re nervous about your results and instead of a nice doctor man telling you your hand is broken and you need surgery, it's a robot. Not very comforting, is it? Some people think that robots taking over healthcare could be a reality, I mean all radiologists do is press buttons, right? A robot can easily take over the job. Wrong. I believe that healthcare is too complex and requires human contact and communication. Robots do not have the ability to comfort patients, nor do they have all the skills required to perform the job of a radiologist or that of any healthcare provider. I do believe that …show more content…
I have many family members who were or still are working as health care providers. Being there for people to help them when they are in need has always been a big passion of mine. I'm a caring and compassionate person and I get to express that working in healthcare. It is challenging work though, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Healthcare can take a lot out of you, and having an aid would be great. I chose to pursue radiology because I want to be there for people. I'd hate to have something I'm so passionate about stripped away by a robot or AI, though I do not believe it will ever happen. Healthcare is too complex, which is also why having AI to simply just be an assistant would be awesome. The way technology is growing I believe that AI and robots will become super helpful to aid healthcare …show more content…
The writer from Intelerad states, “One of the most significant advantages of implementing AI in radiology is that it can continuously perform repetitive and tedious tasks, allowing radiologists to focus on high level work. It further helps in measuring anatomies and lesions accurately. Implementation of AI in radiology has helped companies achieve the best care and highest levels of efficiency possible.” AI has made the job of radiologist a little easier by providing support and doing all the tedious tasks that would take a person possibly many hours to do, allowing the radiologist to focus on other, maybe more important tasks. AI, while very helpful, still needs to be looked over by a human to ensure proper work is being done. According to Intelerad, “Even though AI has helped radiologists automate procedures, it still requires human supervision. AI requires human input and review to perform tasks efficiently. According to experts, although AI has become a part of healthcare, it still needs to mature to improve desired outcomes.” Even with all the new advancements of technology and AI, there is still a need for a human because the AI simply cannot perform needed tasks alone. There are more benefits to the aid of AI in radiology, such as cutting down
Robots haven’t just inherited a spot in the workforce—they’re showing exceptional productivity, expanding skills, and broadcasting their human counterparts. In recent years, with the engagement of manual labor so high, Americans during the Industrial Revolution had no choice but to deal with long, hard work hours while still dealing with their barbarous conditions. As time goes by, we have witnessed many robotic and mechanical devices replace jobs that were done by people. The question of the matter is whether our jobs are safe or will robots soon snatch jobs away from humans completely? The demand for artificial intelligence is rapidly overshadowing the time consumption and work hours that was once satisfied by the duties of human labor.
In the future, I would like to become a medical assistant. This career seems to be a perfect match for me because I have been an EMT for 16 years. I have always had a passion for helping people in their time of need, ever since I was a little kid. I would be the person out on the playground trying to help others, when they got hurt. I would be the kid when the fire department came to the school, for a public relations event, that would be right in the middle of them asking questions.
The flexibility and ability to rapidly explore different specialties within the field would also increase my ability to maximize helping the most people to receive quality care. As humans in general we learn to adapt and transform. As society evolves and grows we as providers need to as well. The flexibility in changing specialties is essential because as the population and world changes so does the needs that people require. Physician’s assistants are trained holistically, the broad program allows for a multitude of information on varying specialties to be learned.
Healthcare has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mother has been a Certified Nursing Assistant for over twenty years. My passion for healthcare comes from watching her care for others family members over the years. Although I did not know what career I wanted to pursue, I knew early growing up that I was destined to work in healthcare. I became fascinated with helping others early in life.
What drew me to this career path was the versability physician assistants have in the medical field since they can switch specialties. For me, this meant I am not just restricted to one specialty, but I can acquire knowledge and practice
The paper will begin by elaborating on the current state of medical AI development and the potential benefits of these technologies, such as increased accuracy, efficiency, and personalized care. Subsequently, the paper will delve into the potential risks and drawbacks of medical AI concerning natural rights, encompassing the issue of assigning responsibility
I am well-versed in anatomy and physiology, and I received my degree from a university known for its academic prowess in the field of radiologic technology. According to "The Princeton Review," in order to work as a radiology technologist, an individual
The first benefit is pay, on average a radiologist will make around $280k (pay scale). The next benefit in the potential to work from home, a radiologist can remote into a hospital network from home to read exams and give reports for stat exams for other doctors in an emergency situation. The next benefit comes from my interview with Dr. Ludka and when asking him about the benefits he told me “a benefit in my opinion is that there is no routine exam, meaning there is no two test are exactly the same and that makes so work doesn’t get boring” (Ludka). A fourth benefit is they have a direct impact in the patient’s wellbeing if they had diagnostic test done then the radiologist must read it in order to discover the patient’s condition and without accuracy a patient could potentially die depending on their condition. A final benefit is some of the extra perk that a radiologist get, with my interview with Dr. Wong I asked him about benefits and his answer was “working as a radiologist, we typically get more vacation time than any other doctor”
Working in different settings and meeting new people that need to be taken care of has always interested me. The job I want to have while I go to college is the very challenging role of a Medical Assistant. Due to the experiences that have happened in my life, I believe that becoming a medical assistant is the best career choice for me. There are many duties and responsibilities I will have as a medical assistant.
The profession I have chosen to pursue is that of a Physician Assistant. My reason for this selection is because it gives you the independency of a Physician while having somewhat less responsibilities. A Physician Assistant provides healthcare services typically performed by a physician, under the supervision of a physician. Some of these services include but are not limited to examining and treating patients, diagnosing illnesses and counseling patients. In some case physician assistants are also tasked to prescribe medicine to patients.
Robots have evolved over centuries. Beginning with robots that counted time to robots that build other robots, robots have developed into the defining creation of the 21st century. Robots help us communicate, give us access to a wealth of information, and entertain us. They are the most widely used things in today’s modern culture and you cannot live for one day without using them. Phones, computers, washing machines, and TVs are all forms of robots that we use in our everyday lives.
In the New York Times Magazine, "Death by Robot," Robin Henig addresses about how robots contributed remarkably to society and became a part of human 's life, but when it came to choosing between two contradictory choices of life and death, even with superior data and calculations, a robot would not be able to replace a human 's
STAR is integrating an aspect of artificial intelligence into the operating room, which is similar to the intelligence that Baymax
This is going to be a massive social challenge. There will be fewer and fewer jobs that a robot cannot do better [than a human]. These are not things that I wish will happen. These are simply things that I think probably will happen.” — Elon Musk “You cross the threshold of job-replacement of certain activities all sort of at once. So, you know, warehouse work, driving, room cleanup, there’s quite a few things that are meaningful job categories that, certainly in the next 20 years [will go away].”
