Fifteen-hundred doctors at a conference in Bombay watched a three-dimensional broadcast of a two-hour prostate surgery at a Michigan hospital.
Dr. Mani Menon developed a form of prostate surgery that uses a robotic arm to remove cancerous tissue and used a new, high-tech operating room to broadcast the prostate surgery to the World Conference of Endourology in Bombay.
In India, doctors at the conference wore 3-D glasses that enabled them to view the operation it all its detail.
