Dr. Shafi Ahmed, a surgeon at the Royal London Hospital, is the first to livestream a surgery he performs on a patient with liver and bowel cancer while wearing Glass. Medical students around the world are able to get a first-person view of what he sees as he performs the surgery. Roy Pulfer, the patient, says he is glad to participate in the event:
