D
The National Health Service(NHS)in the UK is doing something really cool. They are testing tiny cameras that patients can actually swallow(吞)to get checked for cancer. Cancer is a terrible disease. The earlier cancer is found, the easier it is to treat. So, the NHS invites people who might be at risk of certain cancers to have a check once or twice a year. Usually, people need to go to the hospital for checks.
These special cameras are called PillCams. Why? Because they are put in a small capsule(胶囊)that's easy to swallow, just like taking a kind of medicine. The capsule also has a tiny light. As it travels through the body, it takes pictures of the patient's bowel(肠). The pictures are sent to a small device(装置)in a bag that the patient wears. After the camera finishes its job, the patient returns the bag to the hospital. Then, doctors can look at the photos carefully to see if there are any problems. The whole process takes 5 to 8 hours, and during this time, the patient can still go about their normal day, doing things like going to work or doing simple housework.
This amazing technology has already been tried in Scotland. Now, it's being tested on 11,000 patients all over the UK, including England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Sir Simon Stevens, who is in charge of the NHS in England, said, “What seemed like something from a science fiction movie is now becoming real. These small cameras take two pictures every second as they move through your body, looking for signs of cancer and other health problems.” It's so exciting to think about how this new technology can help more people stay healthy!
