    Yeah they do it with a marker when the patient is awake. Like "this is the surgery I'm doing on you, you cool with that? Ok I'm initialing that we are doing the right thing here"

    Like for an amputation they'll mark the leg while the patient is awake "yes I want this one removed"

    Yea branding can be legit for navigational orientation purposes during arthroscopy procedures, but they really need some cool universal orientation design, not dude or school initials.

    Something like Prince's symbol, that the patient chooses. Way cool private organ art.

    And patient consent.

    Get your shit together, docs.
