This paper describes an 8K laparoscopic surgery system with real-time telementoring. It provides live 8K video of a laparoscopic surgery via a communication network to an experienced doctor, who returns instructions to less-experienced doctors operating on-site. We give an outline of the system and describe the results of an evaluation.
