rely heavily on video visualization to perform procedures. Every little
detail they can see will provide better views of anatomy and allow for
more precise decision-making, which can only lead to better care.
Dr. Pryor: It's a safety issue. It's common sense that if you can see better,
you can do a better job on fine, delicate dissections such as Heller
myotomy, when you have to see individual tissue fibers.
Every surgeon wants to work with the best equipment possible, so
they feel like they have the capacity to perform excellent surgery.
Younger surgeons are more appreciative of new technology and are
driving the demand, particularly with all the great imaging we see out-
side of medicine. They want that technology in their ORs as well.
