How often do you think about the end? You should. Every day. No, I am not talking about the end of life. I am referring to goals. We have all heard that life is a journey, not a destination. I propose that life is an endless series of journeys and destinations. In order to navigate […]

Robot-assisted surgery might sound like something out of a science fiction novel, but robotics and medicine have intersected for decades. Pioneers in the field like Dr. Scott Miller have developed and perfected the union between medical robotics and laparoscopy.

Firefly fluorescence imaging takes this a step further by giving the surgeon “night-vision” abilities. Typically, a special “dye” is injected into a patient’s veins. Moments later, certain anatomic structures will light up bright green when […]

Some of you may be asking, “What is a spork?” You have probably seen a plastic spoon with small tines cut into the tip so that it can act as both a spoon and a fork. It is not great at being a spoon, and it certainly is a terrible fork. Sometimes when we try […]

Being a fast surgeon can have different meanings. Some would consider speed to be impressive. Others might be concerned by haste. I would consider such able surgeons as efficient.
