The Nuffield Health Exeter Hospital has invested over £30,000 in a state-of-the-art high definition camera stack to help with keyhole surgery.

The new Karl Storz camera stack is now in use for laparoscopic procedures and operations such as gall bladder removal, hernia repair and gynaecology procedures.

Theatre Manager Jason Finney said “This new camera stack will be of great benefit to the surgeons, giving an even clearer image for them to work to and providing greater detail.

Patients may experience quicker operation times, and so even shorter waits.

Hospital Director Paul Taylor said: “We work hard at the Nuffield in Exeter to make sure that our patients receive the highest quality care available. So we invest significantly in the latest technology and equipment available.”
