As CEO of an independent, not-for-profit health system in California’s Bay Area, I am well aware of the assumption that smaller players are at an inherent disadvantage. But my experience tells me the opposite is true.

New robotic tools are extending insight into the peripheral lung.
Innovative techniques highlighted in a new study at El Camino Health found improved precision and accuracy for lung nodule biopsies using the latest in robotics
technology.
The Mountain View-based health system continues to advance medicine in diagnosing and treating lung cancer and other conditions through use of the Ion Endoluminal Robotic Bronchoscopy System.
Dr. Ganesh Krishna, medical director of El Camino Health’s interventional pulmonology program, is spearheading the innovative work. He referred to the breakthrough technology as “a game changer.”
