Bristol Regional Medical Center...

Here's a picture of just one small corner of our hospital in Bristol Tn. My husband had to go for a check-up and I just happened to have my camera with me. It is a wonderful hospital. They have some equipment that no other hospitals have in the eastern U>S>...One being the cyber knife. I'm not sure exactly how it works, but I think they can detect tumors and operate long before they would have found them otherwise. Maybe the nurses that read this will know a lot more than me!

that kind of knife sound like something you might want if you ever got into a knife fight.

Patsy..LOL!!! Them girls from Arrrrrcansaw! Clara could it be the same thing as cybermedicine? If it is, it is where doc's from all over will kinda examine a patient via satelite. I could be here in a room set up with video, a doc & a nurse...looking at a big screen where I can talk to other docs who are in other places, they see me & I see them...it is live interaction. They discuss the symptoms, tests, the patient etc. All live via satelite or I guess internet now also. You know they have court that way now too. A judge is viewed by the offender on a big screen while the offender is being viewed by the judge. Does any of that make sense?
