DKOU - German Congress of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2018

"We are O and T" is the congress motto of the German Congress of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2018. No other congress in Europe offers a greater platform for professional, collegial and academic exchange than the DKOU 2018. A current challenge is the digitalisation in OandT. Smart implants, wearables and big data applications have the potential to revolutionize our therapeutic options and are a major chance for the future. The counterparts are the risks of a digital process optimisation and economisation specially for the protection of the personal patient data entrusted to us.
