The Future of Surgery from a Clinical Point of View

Medical device networks, software protocols and communication will play a critical role in future medicine. This module will set the foundations for the understanding of future technical infrastructures and will present latest results and technologies for networked operating rooms. Finally, leading clinical experts will present their impressions on the future of surgery.

Networking in the operating room will be demonstrated and illustrated by means of the findings of the BMBF German Ministry of Education and Research flagship project OR-NET. A hands-on session on surgical robotics in the fully networked operating room at ICCAS completes the practical part.
