Medivis Case Study
At Providence Swedish, neurosurgeons are leveraging the Microsoft Surface HoloLens 2 to visualize complex neurosurgical procedures prior to the operation. Check out this case study to learn more about how Providence is leveraging this technology—and for inspiration to help you innovate with the HoloLens 2.
What is the role of Mixed Reality at Providence Swedish?
Providence Swedish is leveraging Mixed Reality technology, specifically through the Medivis Surgical AR software and HoloLens 2, to enhance neurosurgical planning. This technology allows surgeons to create 3D holographic representations of patient anatomy, enabling them to optimize surgical strategies and improve patient outcomes.
How does collaboration enhance surgical planning?
Collaboration is integral to the surgical planning process at Providence Swedish. By using Microsoft Teams alongside HoloLens 2, surgeons can share 3D visualizations of patient data in real-time, allowing for informed decision-making and strategy development prior to complex surgeries, regardless of their physical location.
What impact has Mixed Reality had on patient care?
Mixed Reality technology has positively impacted patient care at Providence Swedish by enabling the planning of over 78 surgeries and conducting more than 100 surgical rehearsals. This approach has led to quicker surgical strategies, reduced procedure times, and enhanced training for neurosurgery fellows, ultimately aiming to improve patient outcomes.
