2021 STS Annual Meeting Online: Immersive Video Experiences

Activity Description

The Immersive Video Experiences include access to 16 programs. Five “In the OR with…” sessions offer 360° views while a master surgeon operates and talks through his/her techniques. 

Two versions of each “In the OR with…” session are included—one is a recording of the live session during STS 2021 where the moderator drove the 360° views, talked with the master surgeon, and engaged with the audience; the second version puts the viewer in the driver’s seat, allowing him/her to maneuver around the OR as the procedure is being performed. 

The Immersive Video Experiences also include 11 “Deep Dive Into…” sessions that complement and expand upon the 360° video topics. The sessions go in-depth on particular procedures showing video clips while world-class panelists discuss and engage the audience with best practices, decision-making, and challenges. 

 

This activity is no longer for sale.
