For deep space missions huh? Cant wait for the those 1 hour call and response times for beaming a medical consult to Jupiter… and that’s not really “deep space”

For the record, the ISS crew normally includes at least one „flight surgeon“ MD. That person is a specialist in the small field of „aerospace medicine:“
But this technology would make it easier for other doctors to consult if an astronaut has a medical issue that’s best treated by a different specialist.

Can we stop using the term hologram if it require you look through a lens or something to view?

I’m trying to understand how a hologram being there would help anything? Cameras that could see everything on the station would help a doctor on land though. This just feels like PR for something.

So it’s more „Holographic communications technology from Deep Space Nine that was used maybe twice and then abandoned“ than „Emergency Medical Hologram.“ Still cool, though.

The original report and event happened 3yrs ago. I think Telehealth has kinda caught up since then. I don’t envisage video consults being problematic in LEO with good enough handover between servers. Or am I way off the mark here….?

To misquote Parks and Recs, „according to my diagnostic you are suffering from intermittent connection problems“.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to project a hologram of the patient to the doctor?

I’m here to check your prostate. Never mind. I’m just a hologram

Dr. Leo Spacemen, I presume.
Please state the nature of the medical emergency
I don’t know about this beaming. Is it safe?
