In parallel, we have refined our trade show and conference strategy for 2026. Compared to prior years, we are placing greater emphasis on select national and regional meetings that consistently generate high quality leads and decision maker engagement, while reducing participation in lower yield events.

Yeah, absolutely. So some of them are going to be immediate. For instance, I'm actually traveling to Japan and Taiwan at the end of this month. So there's a Japanese-Taiwanese co-radiation meeting that's happening at the end of August. And I'll be going with our VP of International Affairs and meeting with the Japanese Radiation Regulatory Committee as well as the Taiwanese. And we already have an SRT100 vision that was sold last year, if you remember, to Taiwan. So the official ribbon cutting will be sometime soon. We're very excited about that, although they've been treating patients for over a year now. So I think that this is going to roll pretty quickly, especially in Asia, because of the China presence that we've had for the last 10 years. And it just boils over to that. And then South America, I think, will be shortly after. And as Joe mentioned, this greatly helps us in India as well and just gives us a backbone that we never had before in international. So we're pretty excited.

If one of the notes that you had from Javier that was increases in some expenses due to sales and trade shows, you know, we had the American Academy of Dermatology trade show was in a very expensive state, and then most recently Astro was in San Diego. If you know anything about the trade shows, Everything in the trade shows that have already been scheduled, we got the upcoming American Academy of Dermatology in March, also in San Diego. The actual costs to us, to any manufacturer, to exhibit in California is almost three times what it was two years ago. I mean, they've increased the cost tremendously. I'm not sure if we're going to continue to see a lot of these big societies continue to have their meetings in California because of those costs. But, I mean, we were as shocked as everybody else was when we showed up and we learned of the extra costs that were involved. So that's pretty much the difference in the expense that we've had in 2022 versus 2023 was just that one very show. But I would tell you we'd do it again only because the show was very valuable to us. We had as much activity at our booth at ASTRO, the American Society for Therapeutic Radiation, as we did several months earlier at the American Academy of Dermatology.
