Brain Imaging Becoming Affordable
Less time-consuming and more precise than previous ways
As 3D laser scanning grows and expands as a field, more people are adopting it. However, it is not always affordable for the average consumer to afford. However, in the science field, many researchers and doctors notice that this technology is more affordable, less time-consuming, and more precise than previous ways of doing things. The more people who adopt this technology notice there are huge advantages of using 3D laser scanning, and the return on investment is worth it. There has been another massive achievement in the world, and it is an affordable brain scanning device.
Most of the tools can seem rather expensive to purchase. Still, because of the ROI, it has always been relatively budget-friendly and worth it. This technology is some of the most advanced globally. Now we are finding better ways to make it even more affordable, and the next step has been taken. Researchers have developed a low-cost and portable brain scanner. This could change the ways first responders help those in accidents and help doctors scan patients’ brains as soon as they enter the hospital.
Typically someone would have to cart a patient to the MRI machine to take images of someone’s brain. This can be time-consuming, expensive, and not as accurate as a doctor would like to be. With this new portable brain scanner, there is less back and forth and more time being with the patient instead of them being in a giant machine. This new 3D laser scanning device is for the head only but could be mounted to an ambulance if necessary.
Is 3D laser scanning safe
Many people are on edge about adopting lasers in their everyday lives. The truth is 3D laser scanning is completely noninvasive but a lot more accurate than a human. This is what makes it so extraordinary for doctors to use. The lasers do not harm a person and have been created safely with no after-effects of use. It does not involve poking or prodding, making it a lot more comfortable for a patient because they won’t even know it’s happening.
This can be one of the best and most effective ways to gather information on someone. The best thing about this new smaller 3D laser scanning device is it can be plugged into a normal wall outlet and sit almost anywhere for immediate use. This unique piece of equipment could save a lot of lives on the way to the hospital.
Final thoughts
There are so many uses for 3D laser scanning, and making them more portable is the first step for further adoption of the technology. The second step is to make it more affordable without cutting back the precision. This new scanner is just a prototype right now, but it could change many people’s lives. It is only a head scanner, but things change rapidly in the technological world.
Once more people start realizing that this noninvasive tool can save hundreds of lives, many hospitals will adopt it in their ambulances. 3D laser scanning made portable will be one of the most significant advancements and advantages our society has seen.
