MORE SPECIALITIES IN MEDICINE
1. Since World War II there has been an almost explosive increase of knowledge in the medical sciences as well as enormous advances in technology as applicable to medicine. These developments have led to more and more specialisation. Expansion of knowledge both in depth and in range has encouraged the development of new forms of treatment that require high degrees of specialisation, such as organ transplantation and exchange transfusion. The field of anaesthesiology has grown increasingly complex as equipment and anaesthetics have improved.
2. New technologies have introduced microsurgery, laser beam surgery, and lens implantation (for cataract patients), all requiring the specialist's skill. Precision in diagnosis has markedly improved; advances in radiology, the use of ultrasound, computerised axial tomography (CAT scan), and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging are examples of the technology extension requiring expertise in the field of medicine.
3. To provide more efficient service it is not uncommon for a specialist surgeon and a specialist physician to form a team working together in the field of, for example, heart disease. An advantage of this arrangement is that they can attract a highly trained group of muses, technologists, operating room technicians, and so on, thus greatly improving the efficiency of the service to the patient.
4. Such specialisation is expensive, however, andhas required an increasingly large proportion of the health budget of institutions, a situation that eventually has its financial effect on the individual citizen. The question therefore arises as to their cost-effectiveness. Governments of developing countries have usually found, for instance, that it is more cost-efficient to provide more people with basic care.
