| The
Minimally Invasive Surgery Center was created in 1995 to
pursue advancements in this exciting new field in all areas
of surgical specialization. The Center's goal is to make certain
that all patients are able to choose less-invasive surgical
treatment options. The Center strives to educate surgeons and
staff either on site utilizing broadcasting of live surgical
procedures and to remote distances offering surveillance of
surgical procedures and teleconsultation via internet. The center
has developed collaborative educational opportunities incorporating
teleconferencing from other universities for didactic and live
surgery. |
