Lt. Col. Bradley Bandera, a general surgeon assigned to the 175th Surgical Detachment, removes a surgical Ray-Tec sponge from a simulated patient during a simulated exploratory laparotomy in the operating room of the field hospital at Sierra Army Depot, California, during a United States Forces Command Medical Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercise, Oct. 29, 2019. If a surgical Ray-Tec sponge was accidentally left in a body during an operation, it could be easily detected by an x-ray because of the blue string woven throughout it.
