Innovation-driven Surgery

Abstract

Being a good surgeon, we are trained to have "Eagle's eyes, Lady's hands and Lion's heart" but we also realize well the limitation of human skills and capability as well as human error. The world rapidly progresses with more knowledge and technologies creation.   Yet, we should recognize well about the opportunity and challenges of Innovation that will pave way for the advancement of surgery:  pre-operative investigations, precise diagnosis and evaluation of pathological lesions, accurate operative technique, and hence improve the outcome of surgical treatment for our patients.
