Media are invited to attend the event.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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&#8217;s anatomy, surgical navigation technology allows us to track the motion of surgical tools, and vital sign monitors allow us to observe the patient&#8217;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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Science Caf\u00e9<br>\n<\/strong><br>\nCome and virtually join us for a lively discussion around a scientific issue of the day.
