Abstract :
Industrial color television now enables doctors and medical students to view surgical operations in parts of the hospital where there is adequate room, comfort, and the opportunity to discuss what is taking place as the operation proceeds. Such a demonstration of Du Mont industrial color television has taken place at St. Clare´s Hospital in New York, for the benefit of doctors attending the Twenty-third Graduate Fortnight of the New York Academy of Medicine. Several hundred doctors have televiewed one or more of the latest surgical techniques, thereby learning by seeing what might not otherwise be seen because of the limitations of the amphitheatre system.
