AI Meets Surgery: How SurgiQuality Is Transforming Healthcare with Data and Transparency
In this episode of Invst Guru, host Jeff “Fuzzy” Wenzel sits down with Dr. Sanjay Prasad, founder and CEO of SurgiQuality, to uncover how artificial intelligence and data-driven insights are reshaping the world of surgery.
