Dr. Vivek Jha6 Likes18 Answers With advancements in medical technology, there will be a diminishing in the reliance on traditional stethoscopes.

AI supported stethoscope, record, & analyse sounds graphically & be transmitted via Bluetooth or an app. Do these advancements mean that the stethoscope is redundant as the first point of contact with a patient in coming time. What do you think about it?
