It seems that more and more hospitals are sharing surgery operations using social media tools, mostly Twitter.
It is a great way to inform and engage the public, future patients and caregivers.
I would like to just see more of this kind of engagement at the health care frontline ie the patient - doctor interaction level.
In this post you can read the tweets from the hospitals at each step of the operation. Nicely done.
