This medical technology firm develops an AI-powered decision support system for surgeons, integrating imaging data to provide real-time intraoperative guidance. The platform helps identify anatomical structures and "no-operate" zones, leveraging radiological characterization of CT images to reduce adverse events and stratify postoperative risk.

Problem
Surgeons often lack real-time, data-driven guidance during operations, making it difficult to precisely identify anatomical structures and avoid critical "no-operate" zones. This can lead to increased risk of adverse events and complications, particularly in complex abdominal wall reconstruction, HPB (hepato-pancreato-biliary), colorectal, and gynecological/pelvic surgeries. Assessing sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass, is also challenging but essential for improving patient care and surgical outcomes.
Solution
Curium Life provides AI-powered surgical intelligence solutions designed to enhance precision, safety, and predictability in the operating room. Their platform integrates surgical radiology and intraoperative guidance, offering real-time measurements and performance tracking. SurgiMeasure, a key component, delivers real-time distance measurements overlaid on surgical video displays, voice-controlled operation, and anatomical landmark recognition. SarcoP, another offering, automates sarcopenia assessment from abdominal CT scans using the HUAC score, enabling informed decisions regarding surgical approach, non-surgical interventions, and post-operative care.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes surgeons specializing in abdominal wall reconstruction, HPB, colorectal, gynecological, and pelvic surgeries, as well as healthcare professionals focused on improving surgical outcomes and patient care through AI-driven insights.
