摘要
In this article, we examine the hypothesis that "ethical dilemmas arise from a conflict of uncertainties," and we discuss the uncertainties in five important areas of health care: medical implants, care of the terminally ill, stem cell technology, tissue engineering, and personalized versus statistically based diagnosis and therapy. These examples are used to justify application of new minimally invasive technology that can produce patient-specific cell-based data to minimize conflicts regarding quality versus length of life and especially the end of life−a major ethical issue of our times.
