Here comes a technically advanced way of performing blood tests. Google believes to develop a wristband that would allow users to perform non-invasive blood tests. The company is devising plans to combine nano particles and wrist-worn sensors. These nano particles will be able to detect diseases. The particles will be sent into the bloodstream of patients through pills.
The entire idea is intended to figure out any change in the person’s biochemistry which can indicate the symptoms of diseases in the very early stages. Google is still in its incubation stage of producing the product.
It is absolutely important to identify diseases at their early stages. For example: cancer like pancreatic cancer come to our notice only during its fatal or untreatable stage. Google aims to eradicate this issue by monitoring the physical condition of patients continuously. With the new technology, the patient can be monitored well before the commencement of severe symptoms. Google X the research unit of the company is pursuing the project at the moment.
