MEDICINE IN THE PAST
The history of medicine shows how societies have changed in their approach to
illness and disease from ancient times to the present. Early medical traditions
include those of Babylon, China, Egypt and India. Sushruta, from India,
introduced the concepts of medical diagnosis and prognosis.
The Hippocratic Oath was written in ancient Greece in the 5th century BCE, and
is a direct inspiration for oaths of office that physicians swear upon entry into
the profession today. In the Middle Ages, surgical practices inherited from the
ancient masters were improved and then systematized in Rogerius's The
Practice of Surgery. Universities began systematic training of physicians around
1220 CE in Italy.
MEDICINE IN THE PRESENT
However, they still had a long way to go regarding the treatment and cures of
infectious diseases as seen today with the constant diseases that still have no
cure.
MEDICINE IN THE FUTURE
Artificial intelligence will play a major role in the future of medicine, currently,
they work virtually and even offer medical advice through the internet,
something that a few years ago was unthinkable. But the current crisis with
COVID-19 made the application of virtual media posible, which leads to
predicting that an application can even be carried through holograms, using
virtual algorithms to identify diseases and that it is not necessary to go to the
doctor in person if the illness that is suffered does not warrant it.
