Abstract：Marx's concept of science and technology is an important theoretical cornerstone for the development of medical technology,and the principle of"human-centeredness"embedded in his concept of science and technology has constructed the ethical direction of the development of medical technology.At present,the real application of medical technology is affected by the alienation of technology,which reveals the problems of the capitalization of medical technology application and the lack of patients'subjective status,the rationalization of medical technology tools and the severance of the sense of humanistic care in medicine,and the contradiction between the rapid development of medical technology and the lagging behind of ethics and morality,and so on.Adhering to Marx's view of science and technology as a guide,improving the responsibility awareness of medical technology developers,and perfecting the regulatory system of medical technology application can effectively prevent and deal with the ethical risks faced by medical technology in its application,so as to better maintain the health of human beings.
