The future of surgery

RSS readers may need to click through to the full article to view the film.

My grandfather had to go through a gnarly kidney removal surgery about 8 years ago – if the cancer had waited just a little bit longer – things like this would be available to make that surgery much less detrimental to his health. He made it two years past the surgery. The cancer spread to his liver and stomach… but if this technology had been available, perhaps they could have traced it, found it, removed it.

But we spend three quarters of a trillion dollars a year on killing-people technology.
