The Ether Dome in Boston was once filled with the screams of patients undergoing painful surgeries. In 1846, everything changed with the first successful use of anesthesia, transforming medicine forever. Dylan explores the room where pain-free surgery began.

 

The Ether Dome is part of the Innovation Trail, which highlights four centuries of world-changing breakthroughs from Boston.
