[00:00.00]Critical illnesses could be
[00:02.40]diagnosed earlier and we
[00:04.26]could be confident that
[00:05.90]even the diagnosis1 of
[00:07.54]a complex disease could be
[00:09.51]clarified and the disease could
[00:11.81]be treated before it becomes fatal.
[00:14.66]Supposing a life threatening virus
[00:17.61]could be controlled, by inference 
[00:19.57]viruses would no longer
[00:21.44]constitute a threat to our wellbeing.
[00:23.85]The concept or idea of people
[00:26.58]living to an extremely old age
[00:28.44]has been suggested. Will
[00:31.39]the consequence of that possibility
[00:33.47]be that people could also
[00:35.33]maintain their intellect as they age?
[00:37.52]Will people be able to
[00:40.14]make arrangements to have
[00:41.57]their body or its parts
[00:43.32]used after they die?
[00:45.28]The donation would help others
[00:47.47]to have some of
[00:49.12]their body parts replaced.
[00:50.65]Will people still have
[00:53.17]funerals and be buried
[00:54.59]in a grave as
[00:55.79]is the current custom
[00:57.21]or will cremation2 be
[00:58.75]the common practice?
[01:00.39]If we wear corrective lenses
[01:03.23]now, perhaps our vision
[01:04.98]could be improved or restored
[01:06.84]through laser surgery. We would
[01:09.25]no longer need to wear glasses.
[01:11.00]The tragedy of a stroke
[01:15.05]and the resulting mental disability
[01:17.34]could be prevented if a monitor
[01:19.64]could analyze3 the person’s
[01:21.50]condition and recommend changes
[01:23.47]in lifestyle or treatment
[01:24.78]that could avert4 a stroke
[01:27.51]or a heart attack.
[01:28.83]An ambulance equipped with
[01:31.78]sophisticated portable medical diagnostic equipment
[01:34.96]could have the ability to
[01:36.71]assess multiple injuries of
[01:38.35]the victim of an accident.
[01:40.75]Recovery would be assisted
[01:43.60]by the provision of prompt treatment.
[01:46.22]The prospect5 of a joint6
[01:49.40]that swells7, being treated
[01:51.48]by a restraint that causes
[01:53.23]lack of motion, is not
[01:55.09]a new idea, but will a synthetic8
[01:57.49]joint be used to replace
[01:59.68]the jointinstead of being treated
[02:01.44]in the current familiar way?
[02:05.16]Will replacement9 of a hip10 joint
[02:06.90]become more commonplace?
[02:08.22]Could a doctor operate on
[02:10.84]one of our organs
[02:12.38]without having to invade our bodies?
[02:14.67]Could surgery be performed with
[02:17.29]the aid of a small camera?
[02:19.04]Will the diameter of
[02:21.45]the lens of the camera
[02:22.88]be so small that
[02:24.63]it would be measured in millimeters?
[02:26.48]The opening required to
[02:28.35]insert the camera into
[02:29.66]our body would be tiny.
[02:32.07]Could a microscope be used
[02:35.13]in the study of biology to
[02:36.55]watch the development of
[02:38.08]a specimen11 of synthetic bacteria
[02:40.16]and then the specimen be used
[02:42.46]to create a treatment
[02:43.99]for the disease being studied
