Hi, I'm Joe Critcher and on today's Business Daily, we're looking at how companies are increasingly using drones in medicine.

It's important to understand that there's a chain of events saving the person's life and the drone is a very critical part of that.

We speak to one Ugandan woman who's using drone technology to fight cancer.

The drones be able to transport these specimens to the modern laboratories

that are in the urban area so that they can get their results in time.

They can be able to get early treatment and thus saving their lives.

This is Business Daily from the BBC.

For the first time a defibrillator, delivered by a drone, has played a critical role in saving the life of someone experiencing a cardiac arrest.

I was on my way to work. I saw a man sitting in his garden and an old woman shaking him. So I stopped my car directly

and went to their garden. And when I looked to him, I saw an agonol breathing. So I lie him down

So I start CPR.

Dr. Mustafa Ali, who works in emergency medicine in a city of Troll Hutton in Sweden,

then asked a woman standing nearby to call the emergency services.

Several minutes, two minutes, maybe I don't know. The drone localized my position and then

drop the defibrillator nearby. Checked it and put it on the patient.

The man survived. He was lucky. He was living in region Vestra Gautiland, where a pilot scheme was being run by local emergency services and the aerospace company Everdron.

The CEO, Matt Seltram, told me how the system works.

The operator at the dispatch centre tries to understand what's happening on site.

And if he suspects that there is a cardiac arrest happening, he will activate what's

called a medical index in the dispatch system.

And our drone system is actually electronically integrated with the dispatch centers
