==Medical Gear==
These devices are useful for first aid, diagnosis, surgery, and long-term patient care. This section also describes static medical robots and microbots, which are treated as equipment. For mobile machines, see Medical Robots (below).

When determining [[physiology modifiers]], automeds, smart bandages, robots, and similar gear are treated as specialized for the designer's species. Versions optimized for treating different species (including animals) may be available, usually at double normal cost.

==Medical Robots==
Most medical robots are static equipment or tiny microbots (both covered under Medical Equipment). However, the need for cheap nursing assistance for an aging population may lead to the development of mobile medical robots.

==Psychiatric Equipment==
This equipment is for monitoring and manipulating the mind.
* [[Brainscanner]] ([[TL9]])
* [[Deep Brainscanning]] ([[TL10]])

==Biotech Equipment==
Equipment for growing life forms and for biotechnology research. [[Portable labs]] for [[Biology]] skill are also useful.
