Heck if I know. Actually, I work with a surgeon (the exception that proves 
the rule?) and he cited the literature. Maybe it's just common knowledge 
o-)

In general, I've found researchers to be very enthusiastic at the prospect of 
having a new tool. But the day to day grunt bears his fardels less favorably. 

3-D is beginning to be more than an idle curiosity to many of those who 
rely upon imaging in their daily tasks. As it is demonstrated that their lives 
get easier with more coherent information, that fewer mistakes are made, 
that more is deduced from a given set, that we work optimally with all our 
senses intact, the more accepting and encouraging and broad based 3-D 
applications become.

One of the first things I saw when I converted my microscope to 3-D was a 
paramecium. Though I imagined it better, I always held a visual image of 
one as a flat little pancake with a frilly edge. Now, for the first time, it was 
a blow fish. All 2-D microscopes now seem cheesely inaccurate and 
unacceptable. So we grow.

>I don't like hearing the word "OOOPS!!" when I'm a surgery patient.  :-)

Me too! I don't trust one eyed surgeons.
