Medical device company Advita Ortho has received a U.S. patent for an AI-enabled surgical planning framework.
The algorithm helps surgeons prioritize the variables in joint replacement procedures, such as implant alignment, sizing and soft tissue balance, rather than balancing each equally, according to a Feb. 11 news release from Advita Ortho.
Over time, the system learns from previous cases to refine recommendations and better align with surgeons’ individual philosophies.
The AI framework aims to enhance consistency, personalization and confidence of joint replacement procedures, the release said.
