It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Perhaps nowhere is that more true than in a medical setting. With Remote Presence technology from InTouch Technologies, doctors can now project themselves to another location via remote-controlled mobile robots - to move, see, hear and talk as though they were actually there. This allows them to provide consistent, high-quality services more effectively to a greater number of both patients and staff. The Detroit Medical Center (DMC) and Wayne State University School of Medicine have 10 robots - one of the biggest rollouts to date of this new technology. Physicians at Shawnee Mission Medical Center in Shawnee Mission, Kansas are also using robots to improve patient care.
