Description
The future of medicine is here. Low-cost smartphone attachments can measure your blood glucose and blood pressure - and can do almost any other lab test with merely one drop of blood. Other attachments can diagnose infectious diseases, including tuberculosis and malaria, and even test your breath or saliva for flu virus, strep throat, heart failure, and some types of cancer.Eric Topol, a practicing cardiologist, in 2012 was voted #1 Most Influential Physician Executive in the U.S. His former book, The Creative Destruction of Medicine, was a national bestseller.
