Evolving Services in the wake of OPeLiNK

As an internist myself, I rarely have a chance to be in the operating room; however, surgery is the most critical place for surgeons. I have a surgeon colleague. While he was a junior resident, he read surgery books in his spare time. And the day before the surgery, he would stay in a diner to prepare for the next day's service. Anatomical knowledge is essential, and surgery is complicated unless you have a three-dimensional understanding of it. After watching various surgeries, assisting, and experiencing a surgical operation, one would become a so-called "full-fledged surgeon." 

However, not all surgeons can obtain surgical experience. Unless you are in a university hospital or a facility that specializes in advanced medical care, you may not even be able to see an advanced surgery. On the other hand, from the patient's point of view, they would want to be operated on by a great surgeon. At least, all the surgeons I know want to improve their surgical skills, and they want to go into more surgeries, perform more surgeries, and become more skilled.

In such a situation, a company aims to provide doctors worldwide can share their surgical experiences as if they were in the field, no matter where they are. The company is OPExPARK Inc, and they are developing a service that digitizes the operating room using IoT technology.
Their service, "OPeLiNK", is an operating room information fusion platform that enables time-synchronized recording, presentation, and real-time distribution of data from various medical devices used in the operating room.
