2 HISTORY RADIOLOGY TECHNOLOGY [ X-RAY MRI COMPUTER TOMOGRAPHY (CT) ] 1895: X-RAY WILHELM RONTGEN 1970: MRI RAYMOND DAMADIAN 1975: CT SCAN MACHINE GODFREY HOUNSFIELD

3 HISTORY ORIGIN OF VACCINES 1796: SMALLPOX VACCINE EDWARD JENNER INOCULATION THROUGH SKIN CONTACT SMALL EXPOSURE TO SMALLPOX GERMS ANTIBODIES CREATED TO BEAT INFECTED CELLS

4 HISTORY ORIGIN OF MODERN MEDICINE 1926: PENICILLIN DISCOVERED ALEXANDER FLEMING STAPHYLOCOCCUS MOLD KILLED BACTERIA CULTURE CONTRIBUTED TOO: LOUIS PASTEUR, FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE

5 HISTORY CHEMIST, MICROBIOLOGIST FROM FRANCE BACTERIA CAUSES MILK/WINE TO SPOIL BACTERIA CAN BE REMOVED THROUGH PASTEURIZATION PATHOGENS ATTACK THE BODY FROM OUTSIDE BACTERIA ORIGINATES FROM THE ENVIRONMENT DISEASES PREVENTED THROUGH VACCINES? LOUIS PASTEUR

6 HISTORY NURSE FROM GREAT BRITAIN WORKED IN MILITARY HOSPITALS IN TURKEY UNSANITARY CONDITIONS CAUSED HIGHER MORTALITY RATE STRESSED IMPORTANCE OF GOOD SANITATION DEATH RATE REDUCED 42% TO 2% ADVOCATE FOR MORE FEMALE NURSES FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE

7 ISSUES Top Issues In Medicine Today VIRUS IMMUNITY CURING CANCER PRESCRIPTION DRUGS INEFFECTIVE MENTAL ILLNESS TREATMENTS

8 ISSUES Viruses [ FLU POX COMMON COLD ] VACCINES (COMMON SOLUTION) ANTIBODIES KILL SICK CELLS, SOME REMAIN CELLS MUTATE DNA TO BECOME RESISTANT VIRUSES BECOME STRONGER AND DEADLIER

9 ISSUES Cancer [ LEUKEMIA BREAST LYMPHOMA ] CHEMOTHERAPY (COMMON SOLUTION) BODY CELLS AND CANCER CELLS DIE CANCER COULD COME BACK AFTER TREATMENT?

10 ISSUES Bad Medications [ PAINKILLERS OTC PRESCRIPTION DRUGS ] HARM MORE THAN HELP THE BODY DAMAGE LIVER, INTESTINES ADDICTIVE AND ABUSED 30% COUNTERFEIT

11 ISSUES Mental Illnesses [ SCHIZOPHRENIA DEPRESSION ALZHEIMER'S ] LIMITED OPTIONS FOR TREATMENT SOMETIMES TREATMENT INEFFECTIVE MEDICATIONS CAN BE HARMFUL TO BODY CASES ON THE RISE

12 ISSUES Viruses The question is: How can we use computers to solve these issues?

13 ISSUES PROPOSED SOLUTIONS Viruses [ QUICKER DEVELOPED VACCINES ] Synthetic Attenuated Virus Engineering (SAVE) -- Computer generated codon pairing in genome + Fast, easy, and cost efficient + Can quickly address an emerging virus - Substantial genetic data needed

14 ISSUES PROPOSED SOLUTIONS Viruses Cancer [ PROTEIN RESEARCH TO REPLACE CHEMO ] IBM Computer aiding cancer research -- Tumor suppressor (protein53) = ½ cancer cases -- Analysis of proteins that control p53 -- Researchers found 28 proteins 30 years -- Computers found 6 proteins 1 month

15 ISSUES PROPOSED SOLUTIONS Viruses Prescription/OTC Drugs [ AWARENESS LIMITED USAGE SMALLER DOSAGES ] NCAPDA -- Raises awareness about prescription drug abuse ENCOURAGE LESS OR NO USE -- Body builds tolerance to pain -- Your liver appreciates it

16 ISSUES PROPOSED SOLUTIONS VirusesIllnesses Mental [ NEW FORMS OF TREATMENT MILDER DRUGS ] MUSIC THERAPY -- Music can alter brain waves -- Induces calm, concentrated state of mind -- Beneficial to nearly all mental illnesses MILDER DRUGS -- Less side effects -- Should be combined with additional therapy

17 ISSUES THE FUTURE OF COMPUTERS & MEDICINE VirusesOutlook Future Computers will play a role in: - Researching solutions for cancer and diseases Developing new antibiotics to solve viruses Spreading awareness about drug abuse Therapy Most solutions are being implemented today!

18 ISSUES THE FUTURE OF COMPUTERS & MEDICINE Computers are important in medical field!
