Important Workshop Quotes:

• Nobody dies in image space. [An image guided intervention] is a significantly different process than diagnosis or treatment planning. -Robert Galloway
• The videogame paradox: "My son uses more sophisticated technology in his videogames than I use to perform procedures" -Marshall Hicks
