No-slides, 60-minute townhall on Robotics in IR emphasizing evidence and implementation. We will examine technical performance (navigation accuracy, tool stability), radiation exposure and ergonomics, workflow integration with PACS, training, and cost-effectiveness. Panel and audience will share best practices, safety issues, and 2–3 pilotable use cases with measurable outcomes.
