Last week there was a seminar on Head & Neck Cancer presented by the UCSD CCC's H&N department at a public library in one of our nearby beach communities. The room was packed.

As part of their surgical presentation they briefly touched on their current TORS program (after a detailed, but gory, graphic jaw replacement and ND slide-show).

The seminar ran out of time and the Library had to close, so there wasn't much of a Q&A session. So, I wondering about the adoption and use of TORS elsewhere.
