350 Surgeons Attend NIMS Training for Advanced Skills
A big training event called the CVTS Boot Camp is happening at NIMS in Hyderabad.
Over 350 young surgeons from all over India are attending.
They are learning about advanced heart and chest surgeries, new technologies, and how to make important decisions during risky operations.
The event is led by experienced doctors and includes discussions about real-life cases.
The goal is to help these surgeons become better prepared for complex surgeries.
The event was started by important guests, including a dean from a university in Lucknow.
The surgeons find this training very useful because it focuses on real-world challenges rather than just books and theory.
Over 350 surgeons from across India are attending a two-day CVTS Boot Camp at NIMS, Hyderabad.
The event focuses on advanced surgical techniques, evolving technologies, and practical decision-making in high-risk procedures.
Organizers aim to address the gap between theoretical knowledge and operating-room readiness.
The programme includes faculty-led sessions, case-based discussions, and mentoring interactions.
Participants find the focus on real-world surgical challenges particularly relevant and useful.
