This interview focuses on intraoperative molecular imaging. At the 2026 American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS) Annual Meeting CTSNet Editor-in-Chief Joel Dunning spoke with Dr. Robert Meguid, Professor of Surgery at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, CO, USA, about this topic.
They explore how this technology identifies small nodules, the functionality and use cases of the specialized camera, the associated learning curve, and other available systems. The conversation also touches on robotics, lymph node staging, and cost. Furthermore, Dr. Meguid shares insights on his frequency of use of this technique.
At the 106th American Association for Thoracic Surgery Annual Meeting, surgeons gathered from around the word to discuss essential topics in cardiothoracic surgery. Interviews with leading surgeons addressing these critical issues were captured, and more interviews from the meeting will be available in the coming weeks.
