How did Dr. Yin-Kai Chao increase his team's weekly image-guided VATS procedures from 3 to 30? 

What role did 2D and true cone-beam CT (3D) technology play in his strategy? 

And what about challenges like time-at-risk or access to the hybrid OR? 

“We need to minimize time-at-risk to provide

optimal outcomes for small lung tumor surgery,”

says Dr. Chao. “We’ve developed a one-stage

procedure that can overcome these limitations1.”
