“Tele Physical Exam”
It may be hard to believe that the advancement of technology can take us to the point where even physical examination or clinical examinations can be done remotely? That is, will human science reach a point where we do not need to see a doctor for initial evaluations for physical examinations and initial clinical examinations? It is very hard to believe, but let's review how a physical examination is normally done, when you go to the doctor with a complaint, the doctor first takes a medical history from you and listens to what is wrong with you, and then begins to perform a physical examination, of course, after asking you certain questions.

Let's imagine that the same physical examination is done remotely, without the physical presence of the patient to the doctor, is such a thing possible? The good news is that the answer is definitely yes, such a thing is possible, by using the technology of Telemedical Practice or remote diagnosis and treatment, we can perform a physical examination in cases where physical examination is not possible, such as in situations such as the coronavirus epidemic, where it is necessary to ensure that the doctor and the patient are at a distance from each other. and there is no possibility of close physical examination, even in this situation, we can use remote diagnosis and treatment facilities. And without the physical presence of the patient, we perform detailed clinical examinations, which are ultimately used for diagnosis and, in fact, the final prescription.
