All are welcome to join this online panel discussion. Media are invited to attend the event.

When a patient undergoes surgery, the operating room contains many devices to help perform and monitor the operation. For example, medical imaging devices allow us to see the patient’s anatomy, surgical navigation technology allows us to track the motion of surgical tools, and vital sign monitors allow us to observe the patient’s status. Together, these devices allow the surgeon to successfully perform the surgery. But these devices also produce a lot of data. In this talk, we will explore how to analyze this data and use artificial intelligence to help doctors perform surgery.
