Indeed, a possible future: a low-cost MRI or CT-scan creates a virtual representation of some part of your body, you or a specialist (that could incidentally be remote in time and/or place) performs some task, say surgery, on the virtual body until a successful sequence of steps is found. The system records while you debug and carries out the finalized procedure on the real body. Lots of interesting things to do with a platform sitting between the surgeon and the patient.
