UCL neuroscientists have pioneered the use of AI during live brain tumour surgery, marking a significant breakthrough in neurosurgical practice.
The AI system analyses live surgical video feeds in real time, helping surgeons identify critical anatomy and make more precise decisions during delicate procedures.
The technology runs on an Nvidia Clara IGX platform, specifically designed to deliver AI capabilities within medical device settings.
Patient Rhys Hibbert, 48, underwent the experimental procedure to remove a pituitary gland tumour that threatened his balance and eyesight.
