FREMONT, CA: The New York city based medical technology firm, Medivis has come up with SurgicalAR allowing operators to have superior understanding, confidence, efficiency, and precision for every patient. This groundbreaking augmented reality surgical planning toolkit, SurgicalAR has won clearance for clinical use in the operating room by the Food and Drug Administration. Launched SurgicalAR earlier this year, the company will commence the immediate commercialization of the platform in the U.S.
The platform is a visualization tool that guides surgical navigation, which Medivis claims can reduce complications and enhance patient outcomes, at the same time lowering surgical costs. A bulk of medical procedures are performed relatively blindly, with surgeons having to reconstruct slices of 2D imaging data in the mind’s eye to make it actionable. The enterprise SurgicalAR integrates the latest advancements in augmented reality, artificial intelligence and computer vision to advance surgical visualization, to overcome such challenges.
