Okay, now it’s the 21st century. Cancer patients in Tennessee and Mississippi are now getting the opportunity to see a hologram doctor. The West Cancer Center & Research Institute, which serves close to 20-thousand patients a year across Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas, has put tech into place at two of its clinics to replace video calls with life-size holograms of the doctors for consultations and office visits.
The clinics are using tech from Proto Hologram, a company that provides the systems used to create holograms at concerts, corporate conferences, and other live events, and has been used by the Jonas Brothers, Paris Hilton, MrBeast and more. You may start seeing this pop up in other clinics around the country; the company has now dropped the price of the system from $65-thousand to $29-thousand.
