Laparoscopy is new standard in METC surgical tech training
Petty Officer 1st Class Wesley Middleton, left, removes a "liver" during a mock laparotomy assisted by Petty Officer 2nd Class Domenick Llanda. Both are instructors in the Medical Education and Training Campus Surgical Technologist program. Army, Navy and Air Force ST students are becoming familiar with laparoscopic and laparotomy procedures, which are more universally practiced, in order to prepare them for what they'll experience in the clinical and field environments.
