Medical staff at David Grant USAF Medical Center view monitors while performing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery to remove the upper left lobe of a cancer patient's lung Feb. 26, 2019 at Travis Air Base, California. During the procedure, surgeons inserted a tiny camera (thoracoscope) into the patient’s chest through two small incisions. The thoracoscope transmits images to monitors, guiding the surgeons in performing the procedure. (U.S. Air Force photo by Heide Couch)
