Abstract

Intelligent medicine is a discipline system developed and established in the background of a rapid development of science and technology. Information technology represented by artificial intelligence, VR(virtual reality) technology and the 1G (first-generation) communication laid a foundation for intelligent medicine. Internet technology, such as 3D printing, robot system and wearable medical devices have helped to improve the development of intelligent medicine. The application of intelligent medicine infiltrated medical imaging, auxiliary diagnosis, surgical operation, hospital management, pharmaceutical development, healthcare system and other aspects of the medical system. Currently, the cutting-edge technologies such as 5G medical, medical cloud platform/big data, advanced material synthesis, 4D printing, AR(Augmented Reality)/MR(Mixed Reality), super intelligence and other technologies have comprehensively driven human society into the era of intelligent medicine.

智能医学是在科技迅猛发展的时代背景下快速发展并壮大成形的学科体系。早期人工智能,VR技术,移动通信等信息化技术为其发展奠定了基础;手术机器人,3D打印,可穿戴设备等促进智能医学进一步发展;如今智能医学已应用于医学影像、辅助诊断、手术操作、医院管理、药物研发、健康体系等医疗体系的各个方面。以5G医疗、医学云平台/大数据、先进材料合成、4D打印、AR/MR、超级智能等为代表的一系列前沿科技将推动人类全面进入智能医学时代。.
