"In the OR with…" – 5 Sessions, 2 versions of each
Experience a procedure “wheels in” to “wheels out” as a world-class surgeon brings you into an operating room. See who’s in the room, how they are positioned, and what equipment they are using—all without traveling to another hospital. Two versions of each session are included:
- Watch the recordings of the live sessions during STS 2021 where the moderator drove the 360° views, talked with the luminary surgeon about his/her thought processes and operative techniques, demonstrated the difference between good outcomes and masterful ones, and engaged with the audience for interactive discussions throughout each session.
- Interact with the original video where you are in the driver’s seat, allowing you to maneuver around the operating room as the procedure is being performed.
