What do surgical technicians specialize in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Handling Instruments: Surgery requires highly specialized instruments, needles, suture material, etc. For example, 1 operation may require the use 15 or so different types of scissors! a surgical technician specializes in handling, organizing and giving/taking back instruments from the surgeon, which requires complete participation in the procedure to anticipate what will be required. A good tech is invaluable.
