Scalpel and other surgeons, glad to hear that your experience has been a bit different than mine concerning the "wow factor" when seeing the current PR videos available.

I am hoping that the surgeons on this board who are Titan technology favorable start voicing opinions on where and how the platform may present advantages over manual, and even DaVinci methods. I'm speaking more about procedure-specific ideas, not the standard line about smaller incision, less blood loss, etc.. Also worth discussing what can't be performed with it (at this time, anyway).

Does anyone know if the most recently mentioned testing (cholecystectomy?) was done in a live animal. If so, was the procedure closed and the animal recovered?

I still think that two simultaneous Sport units may provide the biggest bang for the buck for procedures where more "hands" and instruments are needed. The surgeons have to drive these procedure development ideas, not the engineers.
