CARS – SpECIAL EVENTS

14:00 | 2nd ISCAS Surgical Workshop 2010: Neurosurgery
Friday, June 25, 2010
; Hall A

ISCAS has conceived the concept of "Surgical Workshops" to be held annually along with the CARS conference. The objective is to bridge the gap between early adopters of new technologies in the surgical routine, engineers developing new systems, surgeons not aware about new technological progress, and the industry. Every year, we will focus on a surgical specialty (2009: Maxillofacial / ENT; 2010: Neurosurgery). In an event consisting of introductory tutorials, clinical reports by experienced early adopters, and hands-on sessions given by surgeons mainly, the surgical workshop shall transfer clinicians from "observers" to "users”, and to "partners". This dedicated time will allow sharing ideas, knowledge, and visions between different worlds for a better patient care in a constructive atmosphere.
