Synopsis:
George Wilson, MD, a radio- logy resident in Los Angeles, is about to enter a profession on the brink of an enormous para- sign shift, foreshadowing a vastly different role for doctors everywhere. The smartphone is poised to take on a new role in medicine, no longer as a mere medical app but rather as a fully customizable personal physician capable of diagnosing and treating even better than the real thing. It’s called iDoc.
His initial collision with this incredible innovation is devast- ating. He awakens one morning to find his fiancée dead in bed alongside him, not long after she participated in an iDoc beta test. Then several of his patients die after undergoing imaging procedures. A of them had been part of the same beta test.
Is it possible that iDoc is being subverted by hackers and that the U.S. government involved in a cover up? Despite threats to both his career and his freedom, he relentlessly seeks the truth, knowing that if he’s right, the consequences could be lethal.
