Problem
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures require precise valve positioning to ensure optimal patient outcomes and minimize complications. Achieving this precision consistently can be challenging, potentially leading to suboptimal results and the need for further interventions.
Solution
Caranx Medical's AiiR platform, featuring the TAVIPILOT system, integrates artificial intelligence, real-time image analysis, and robotic assistance to enhance the precision and standardization of endoluminal surgical procedures, specifically aortic valve implantation. The platform utilizes AI trained on a multi-modal database to build a digital twin, enabling the system to anticipate potential complications and provide patient-specific recommendations. Real-time multi-modal medical image analysis facilitates fast and intelligent decision-making, while robotic assistance allows for autonomous motions supervised by the clinician, increasing precision. TAVIPILOT aims to optimize aortic valve positioning, leading to more consistent outcomes and reduced variability in TAVI procedures.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes interventional cardiologists and medical professionals performing TAVI procedures, as well as hospitals and medical centers seeking to enhance precision and standardize their endoluminal surgical techniques.
