How can OCT technology help reduce healthcare costs? - with Dr. Sanjay Juneja
Missed margins and repeat surgeries drive up healthcare costs and stretch critical resources. OCT technology offers a path to smarter imaging and fewer reoperations, cutting costs while improving outcomes. Dr. Sanjay Juneja hosts Adrian Mendes, CEO of Perimeter Medical Imaging AI, to unpack how intraoperative OCT can drastically lower re-excision rates in breast cancer surgery. They explore the ripple effect this has on healthcare economics - from reduced OR time and insurance payouts to stronger patient survival rates. You’ll learn how data-backed imaging aligns both clinical and financial priorities.
