Throughout the Fallout series many humans, ghouls, super mutants and even dogs, have had certain elements of their bodies replaced with cybernetic modifications. The definition of a Cyborg is a biological organism whose abilities have been extended beyond normal limitations, either through electronic, mechanical or robotic means. Synths on the other hand, which are synthetic in nature, are the polar opposite. They are synthetic organisms and while they do have human or animal flesh they are not considered cyborgs by definition, as such they will not be discussed, but they will receive their own dedicated video. Now, the use of implants and prosthetics was fairly normal before The Great War, with artificial organs being used in hospitals during lifesaving surgeries, but also more broadly in military and police settings. Specifically, implants that improved the defences and combat proficiency of Cyberdogs and Robobrains. However, the process of turning a biological organism into a cyborg isn’t as simple as I’ve made it sound, and many times the procedures were detrimental to the subjects health and wellbeing. As a result Doctors would only suggest cybernetic surgeries if it was a medical emergency. Whereas the US military took things to the extreme.
