Industry Satellite: Can Technology Buy Value? The Whole-System Case, and the Evidence

Every session of Day 1 attacked one link of the value chain of an everyday procedure — demand → detection → characterisation → therapy → documentation → surveillance. The satellite asks the whole-chain question, and the story holds it to the same standard as everything before it: technology as a multiplier of good practice, never a substitute for it.
