Medical technology is mainly to train senior technicians and therapists who work closely with clinicians in medical services and master special medical technology and skills. These include medical imaging technicians, respiratory therapists, rehabilitation therapists, audiologists, optometrists and nutritional therapists.
Form a medical technology education system that meets the development trend of modern medicine and the requirements of personnel training standards, and cultivate senior medical technical personnel who meet the actual needs of China's national construction and have the basic theoretical knowledge and practical working ability in humanities, science, basic medicine, clinical medicine and medical skills necessary for medical technology work.
Introduction of medical technology specialty:
The main research direction and content of the major included in the first-level discipline of medical technology are closely combined with the application, diagnosis and treatment technology and professional development of related clinical medicine majors, and the technical application, skill training and research and development of medical engineering technology are paid attention to in the training of related majors.
In July, 2009, the Office of the State Council Academic Degrees Committee issued a notice of soliciting opinions on the adjustment of the first-level discipline catalogue, which revised the current discipline catalogue and further improved the discipline system.
20 1 1 The Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council approved the proposal put forward by Huaxi Hospital/Huaxi Clinical Medical College to adjust the first-level discipline of medical technology from two disciplines under clinical medicine to the first-level discipline of medical science.
Medical technology mainly includes medical examination, respiratory therapy, medical imaging, optometry, audiology, clinical nutrition, rehabilitation therapy (including physical therapy, occupational therapy and prosthetic orthopedic technology), electrophysiological technology and so on.
Chinese and western medicine use different ways of thinking to diagnose and treat diseases. The basic theory is systematic and has essential differences. The difference between Chinese and western medicine lies not only in whether there is an empirical scientific concept, but also in the difference between two cultural systems.
Theoretically speaking, Chinese and western medicine are two medical systems that cannot be unified. "Integration of Chinese and Western Medicine" once became the guiding ideology of the School of Integration of Chinese and Western Medicine. However, due to the different foundations of the two kinds of medicine, it is difficult to apply western medicine to Chinese medicine. The facts of nearly a century have proved that "the judgment of Huitong medicine is divorced from the factual understanding of Chinese and western medicine;"
