Robots. Artificial intelligence. Real-time. Remote. We can only predict what surgery will look like in 50 or 100 years, but one thing will always be true: the patient and surgeon will always be at the center. It is a serious and even sacred relationship. And the same is true for the surgeon and the technology they use. It’s not about the bits or bytes, it’s about how the tools help best meet each patient’s unique needs, to deliver the best possible outcome. Join Rajit as he goes beyond robots to explore the fascinating and exciting intersection of people and technology shaping the future of surgery. Spoiler, there will be robots and AI—and beyond.
