Despite the ground-breaking advances in robotics and visualization technologies over the recent years, we know very little about the way these new emerging technologies affect everyday activities in health care organizations. Our understanding of the social implications of such emerging technologies is still inconclusive. This book seeks to explore emerging health care technologies such as surgical robotics, image-guided  visualization methods (2D, 3D, 4D & 5D) and home telehealth management systems and their acceptance in the workplace but also, more generally, their role in business and society. This volume contains chapters each of which reports cutting edge cases of emerging technologies. The book describes the emerging relocation of expertise and knowledge that may transform health care organizations in the years to come.
