Revolutionizing Medical Treatment for Bones and Spine.
Augmented reality or AR plays a significant role in the healthcare sector by enhancing the treatment facilities offered to patients with specialized solutions based on AR and 3D modeling.
Business Overview
AR or augmented reality, along with 3D modeling and virtual reality or VR, is all set to bring about a revolution in providing treatment facilities to patients.
Medical imaging techniques have radically evolved over the past few decades with advances in technology such as ultrasonography, MRIs, and many more, but the introduction of AR will play a pivotal role.
Augmented reality or AR and virtual reality or VR happen to be the two most promising platforms for surgery as well as surgical planning for the spine and bones.
Our client, based in California, offers advanced treatment facilities for spinal injuries and joint damage. Specialized AR solutions that stimulate computerized environments to ensure better patient care.
The Challenges
Customization and personalization are two vital elements in patient care. Therefore, creating a model accordingly was a tough task.
Creating a model that bends appropriately and customizing the generic surgical plates into patient-centric shapes for a perfect fit was challenging.
Adhering to the Food and Drug Administration or FDA approval standards while creating silicone training models was difficult.
Developing custom medical models to enable doctors to decide on the best possible treatment method specific to the personal anatomy of every patient was certainly challenging.
Our Solution
Clinical Judgment
Developing the model involves appropriate interpretation of images and clinical judgment, thereby enabling doctors to offer better treatment to patients.
3D or Three-Dimensional Model
The specialized 3D model has the potential to duplicate muscles as well as tissues with their original color and texture that are simulated.
Clinical Aid to Surgeons
The model helps surgeons to easily trial new techniques and prepare the necessary equipment well in advance of an OT or surgery.
Augmented Diagnosis
The 3D model comes with a very high resolution which provides surgeons a more holistic view as compared to the traditional 2D realm of radiography.
Boost in Revenue
The specialized 3D model offers easy access to the full-scale anatomy of patients, thereby ensuring more accuracy in diagnosis and facilitating the enhancement of revenue.
Effective Communication
The created model facilitates easy as well as effective communication among patients and doctors, thereby improving the efficacies of treatments.
Project Features
Development of the model involves interpretation of images and clinical judgment, which is capable of duplicating muscles as well as tissues with the original color & texture that are simulated.
With the help of this model based on augmented reality, surgeons can try out new techniques as well as procedures and prepare themselves accordingly before surgery.
The high resolution of the three-dimensional model provides surgeons with a detailed view of patients’ inner body parts, thereby offering easy access to their full-scale anatomical model, ensuring diagnosis with higher accuracy.
Outcome
The model based on AR and VR offers surgeons easy pre-surgery access to three-dimensional images of bones, spine, hearts, and a number of others for better precision during surgeries.
With the help of the model, surgeons are able to opt for a detailed study prior to surgeries, thereby helping them with adequate preparation for every case to implement proactive and time-saving procedures.
Easy as well as convenient storing of images and data of patients on one augmented reality platform lowers the requirement for costly screens & unnecessary staff.
The AR-based model plays a significant role in allowing surgeons to practice or rehearse complicated surgeries before they actually take place in real time.
