Storz Endoscope boasts live demonstrations. There was a live surgical procedure in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on November 8, 2011 that used remote presence technology by a high-speed Internet connection to 1200 participants. The VistOR1 technology features a unit on a cart or on a boom arm above the surgical field. It is then linked to a high speed Internet connection. This allowed 1,200 people to participate in this observatory presentation. Not only were they able to view this surgery, they were able to adjust the view so they could see what they wanted to see.
Surgeons using a laptop of their own can experience the procedures live as they observe complex cases and interact with the surgeons in the room. Storz Endoscope is part of these kinds of innovative research procedures and are used for major surgeries that are now minimally invasive. This is because the doctor is able to see and use probes to do a biopsy or deal with conditions like endometriosis.
This commitment that Storz Endoscope has made to women’s health is along with the AAGL, or American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists, is incredible. Its VistOR1 telepresence technology has made it a part of this landmark presentation.
