Histolog digital microscopy | All you need to know!
About this episode
We bring you highlights from a fantastic two day meeting at the ORSI Academy in Belgium, focussing on the hot topic of intra-operative margin assessment (IOMA), especially during prostate cancer surgery. Following on from the publication of the Neurosafe Proof RCT last year, there has been a surge in interest in new technologies to facilitate IOMA, in particular the Histolog confocal laser microscope (Samantree Medical).
Day one consisted of a Delphi consensus meeting with a gathering of world-leading experts in IOMA, discussing how novel technologies like Histolog can be used to assess surgical margins in real time, and thereby improve nerve-sparing surgery. Day 2 consisted of a 12 hour World Robotic Surgery Event (WRSE) run by Surgquest, the digital arm of ORSI Academy, during which very many surgeries used Histolog to assess surgical margins. Just outstanding!
Your usual hosts Declan Murphy and Renu Eapen participated in the Delphi and caught up with many experts to discuss IOMA. A wonderful overview of this hot topic - enjoy!
This one definitely best appreciated on our YouTube channel.
