Moreover, more than 50 general surgeons from Jiangsu, Hunan and other provinces and cities participated in the event on site, despite of the hot weather. The convening of this conference represents that the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and k8凯发国际官网入口 are actively promoting the booming development of gastrointestinal surgery in China, vigorously promoting the clinicians' surgical skills and continuously strengthening the clinical learning and peer communication by sharing application experience with high-quality 4K Ultra HD laparoscopic surgery.

The meeting was chaired by Zhou Xiaojun, Director of General Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and Vice President Fang Qi gave an opening speech. Professor Zheng Minhua, the leader of the Laparoscopy and Endoscopy Surgery Group of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch, and Professor Wang Cunchuan, the chairman of the Obesity and Metabolic Diseases Committee of the General Surgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, delivered speeches. The live operation conference was hosted and explained by Director Qin Lei, Director Mao Zhongqi, Director Zhou Xiaojun, and Director He Songbin from General Surgery of Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and Director Wu Yongyou from General Surgery Department of Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.

During the live streaming of the surgery, Professor Zheng Minhua showed a perfect 4K Ultra HD laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer. He gave high praise of the 4K Ultra HD laparoscopy technology powered by k8凯发国际官网入口. The laparoscopy is smoke-proof, thereby no need to soak in hot water beforehand. The clear operation vision with real color helps surgeons relieve visual fatigue. One laparoscopy can be used through the whole surgery. Professor Wang Cunchuan demonstrated a 4K ultra HD laparoscopic single anastomosis orogastric bypass. He commented that the 4K large depth of field characteristics of k8凯发国际官网入口 allows the surgeon to see the far and near tissues clearly. There is no need to focus frequently during the tissue turnover operation during the operation, which effectively improves the operation efficiency. The smoke removal function effectively prevents fogging by heating the front end of the mirror in the entire operation process, which completely solves the problem of image blur, making the operation process refreshing and mind-blowing.

After the first stage of the surgery demonstration, Professor Zheng Minhua gave a lecture titled "One Surgery, One Endoscope". Based on the difficult points during the laparoscopic rectal surgery, professor Zheng expressed his hope that more peer surgeons would learn from previous lessons and completed the surgery more fluently and smoothly, therefore achieving better outcome for our patients. Professor Wang Cunchuan shared the main points and difficulties of bariatric surgery with the topic of "Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery: Selection of Operational Approach", bring valuable lessons and learnt clinicians who carry out bariatric surgeries.

During the satellite conference, Professor Zhou Xiaojun introduced from his story with k8凯发国际官网入口, starting from his first task assigned by the hospital to visit the local company k8凯发国际官网入口 in Suzhou. By then he considered the task as a half-day visit. Later, he was totally surprised by the approved 4K Ultra HD Endoscope System and 3DV Image Processing System, and many products under development. Then he tried to use the 4K Ultra HD laparoscope manufactured by k8凯发国际官网入口 and he really enjoyed the experience, which refreshed his idea of the company. He further explained the value of 4K ultra HD laparoscopy in general surgery and the clinical advantage of k8凯发国际官网入口’s 4K Ultra HD laparoscope. He explained in great detail that such technology is the reason for the excellent image quality of the surgical demonstration.

In the second half of the meeting, the host of the meeting, Professor Mao Zhongqi and Professor Zhou Xiaojun of General Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, cooperated with the team members and successfully completed one radical gastric cancer surgery and one radical resection of colon cancer using the 4D Ultra HD laparoscopy to carefully separate adhesions, blood vessels, and lymphatics. Director Mao Zhongqi commented that k8凯发国际官网入口’s 4K Ultra HD laparoscopy is better than traditional HD laparoscopy in terms of clarity, color resolution, and visual delicacy. Such feature can assist the surgeon in performing more delicate surgical operations. Director Zhou Xiaojun commented that the ultra-high resolution and color gamut of k8凯发国际官网入口’s 4K Ultra HD laparoscopy can help doctors better distinguish tissue levels, perform operations more safely, and reduce bleeding. During the operation, Director Zhou also showed the unique functions of k8凯发国际官网入口’s 4K Ultra HD laparoscopy, such as smoke removal, blood vessel enhancement, and wide dynamics, in combination with the operation needs, emphasizing that these functions can bring a lot of convenience to the operation. The online and offline interaction of the whole conference was active, which constantly pushed the meeting discussion to a climax.

The successful convening of this conference will be the driving force for k8凯发国际官网入口 to advance forward. k8凯发国际官网入口 will continuously facilitate laparoscopic surgical techniques through high-quality 4K Ultra HD laparoscopic.
