Midjourney 成立了一家名為 Midjourney Medical 的新公司。他們希望打造一台能使用聲波快速掃描全身的設備。

Main Body

The machine uses sound waves and water. It takes a picture of the body in 60 seconds. The boss says it is better and safer than an MRI.

這台設備使用聲波和水來運作。它可以在 60 秒內完成全身成像。負責人表示，這比 MRI 更優秀且更安全。

Midjourney will open special spas in San Francisco in 2027. These spas have the scanners, saunas, and cold baths. They want 50,000 machines around the world by 2031.

Midjourney 將於 2027 年在三藩市開設特殊的健康水療中心。這些中心將配備掃描儀、三溫暖以及冷水浴。他們的目標是在 2031 年前在全球部署 50,000 台設備。

Some doctors are not happy. They say these scans can find small problems that are not dangerous. They also say this machine cannot replace all other medical tests.

部分醫生對此並不滿意。他們認為這些掃描可能會發現一些並不危險的微小問題。他們還表示，這台設備無法取代所有其他醫療檢查。

Conclusion

Midjourney is moving from computer software to medical machines. They need permission from the government first.

Midjourney 正在從電腦軟體轉型至醫療設備。他們需要先獲得政府的許可。
