Minimally invasive surgery offers less pain and faster recovery, yet teaching it worldwide faces obstacles of language and distance. In one hospital alone, millions are spent on over 100 translators for 63 languages, but even that is not enough. A new technology prototype blends video, captioning, and automated translation to make live surgical education accessible in multiple languages at once. This approach promises not just to teach, but also to learn globally, making the world smaller and safer for patients everywhere.
