Quantum medicine: the way forward? - News-Medical.Net

A report published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine explores the potential applications of quantum physics in medicine. Quantum physics, derived from quantum theory, focuses on the behavior of matter and energy at the subatomic scale. The report suggests that quantum physics could enhance our understanding of various medical phenomena, such as carcinogenesis, neural networks, and DNA mutations. It also proposes that quantum theory could be used to study the connection between consciousness and mind, leading to better patient toleration of painful procedures. Additionally, quantum theory may offer insights into the functioning of cells and the early detection of diseases. However, there are ethical and practical challenges to implementing quantum physics in medicine, such as the lack of technological infrastructure and the need for training medical professionals in quantum physics.
