According to experts, robotic technology and minimally invasive techniques help improve surgical precision, reduce tissue damage, shorten recovery time and significantly improve the quality of treatment for patients.

The conference not only provided updated perspectives on the remarkable advances in modern medicine but also expanded professional cooperation between Vietnamese and Singaporean medical teams, contributing to bringing advanced surgical technology closer to people in the Central region.
