Surgery app / Приложение для хирургов

   The operating theatre can be a daunting place for patients.
   And for trainee surgeons, limited time and resources mean not all get enough hands-on experience.
   Which is why four surgeons in London developed an app to practise surgery.
   It has training modules which give step-by-step guides to common surgical procedures.
