Surgeons at Skagit Valley Hospital now have the latest in ultra high definition images courtesy of the Arthrex Synergy System installed in the operating rooms this summer.

 

For the average person, it’s like watching a big screen, ultra-HD television. For the surgeon, it’s  viewing the big screen while using the  latest in probe-mounted cameras and surgical tools to visualize the field and perform procedures with even greater precision.

 

“I am looking forward to having the latest and greatest technologies

 

in arthroscopic instrumentation and equipment to improve the precision of surgery and the patient experience,” said Orthopedic Surgeon Christopher Sheu, MD when the new system was announced.
