DePuy Synthes launched Velys Hip Navigation with AI Assistance in the U.S., bringing artificial intelligence to total hip arthroplasty for the first time on its VELYS Hub platform, according to a June 10 news release.
The system automates intraoperative image interpretation and landmark identification for real-time, patient-specific data. The AI model was trained on geographically diverse, deidentified clinical datasets and uses a human-in-the-loop design that keeps surgeons in control of final anatomical decisions.
“This solution is designed to streamline workflows and reduce complexity by providing real-time, patient-specific insights,” Sharrolyn Josse, global president of joint reconstruction, said in the release. “It is not simply an update to VELYS Hip Navigation; it is the next generation of the platform, built to keep control in the surgeon’s hands.”
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
