I'll be the first to complain about sitting in my Cardiologists waiting room. Maybe those checkups will be unnecessary. CHECK THIS OUT.

Hmmm... Wouldn't want my life depending on this until there was years of successful track record to go along with it... My Doc ain't gettin' rid of me that easily. -
That has been in computerland for years. It is called PFA - predictive failure analysis.

Interesting, but I doubt it would decrease the need for doctors visits. Not to be too cynical about it, but a) doctors don't get paid by patients not seeing them but the other way around, and b) virtually all technological innovations like this that result in more information produce results that require action or interpretation, therefore more doctor visits.
It's still an interesting idea...Jeff

Have to admit it's interesting, the more you think about it. Wouldn't be a trip if you got to work one morning and there was a message in your voicemail from your cardiologist, saying "Our computer says you're going to have an MI later this afternoon... Could you stop by the hospital by about 11am, so that we can head this off?".

I'm still waiting for a Star Trek "salt shaker' that I can scan you with and know exactly what's wrong and what to do!
