This technology is an augmented reality guidance system that aids clinicians in performing medical procedures.
Medical procedures, including those used in vascular interventional surgery, may utilize X-ray fluoroscopy for guidance and facilitation. However, fluoroscopy-guided procedures only produce 2D images of complex 3D networks and can be challenging, time-consuming, or involve the use of toxic contrast agents or radiation.
This technology is an augmented reality guidance system that provides clinicians with a 3D interactive model to facilitate medical procedures. In vascular interventional surgery, this approach automatically transforms a 3D virtual model of a patient’s vessels, allowing clinicians to locate difficult vessels more easily and reduce procedure length. As such, this technology can improve patient outcomes by reducing radiation exposure, contrast dose, and complication rates.
