Problem: Surgical Deaths, Litigation, Complications[2]
3D recon is a
huge
un-realized opportunity for healthcare[2]
- Improves care and reimbursed for many procedures but under-utilized
- Benefits: patient, surgeon hospital, radiology[3]
“48% of hospital costs were for stays that involved
OR procedures and only
7 procedures account for approximately
80% of all admissions, deaths, complications,
and inpatient costs.”[4]
Unfortunately, 3D recon is
stuck at the last mile[1,5]
and the chasm between radiology and care continues to grow
- 3D print is slow, costly and limited. Glasses, goggles and cords are impractical during surgery
- Other radiology solutions require training or VPN connections to big servers limited to 10 clinicians
