April 10, 2019
LOS ANGELES, April 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Surgical Theater is proud to announce the first international debut of the Precision VR® Enterprise Solution at DMEA in Berlin, Germany. DMEA is Europe's largest event in the healthcare IT industry and provides Surgical Theater with a great opportunity to feature the proven economic value of Precision VR® and its scalability utilized as an Enterprise Solution.

Surgical Theater's Enterprise Solution enables hospitals to achieve deployment on a system-wide scale, including satellite locations. Precision VR® may now be connected to the hospital's network while complying with its security policies. All 360° VR cases are stored in the hospital's data center and are accessible by any Precision VR® Application on the network. Precision VR® offers an intuitive and immersive approach to patient engagement, surgical planning, resident education and multidisciplinary collaboration for Neuro, Spine, ENT, Thoracic, Cardiac, and various Digestive Health applications (i.e.: Pancreatic Cancer).

"The scalability of the Enterprise Solution integrates seamlessly into a hospital's existing workflow, enabling VR to be accessible anywhere, anytime," said Chris Gough, General Manager, Health & Life Sciences at Intel Corporation. "Intel and Surgical Theater have a strong partnership for bringing virtual and augmented reality solutions to healthcare, and we are delighted that the Enterprise Solution is now available for the European market."

Precision VR® is a 360-degree virtual reality technology that allows surgeons to walk inside their patients' anatomy. Precision VR® models are constructed and rendered based upon the patient's CT and MRI scans culminating in a patient-specific 360° virtual tour, which can be a shared VR experience for senior surgeons and residents in training to create the surgical plan.

"Surgical Theater is proud to enter the European Market," says Moty Avisar, CEO and Co-Founder of Surgical Theater. "Our Precision VR® Enterprise Solution is providing 360-degree images that allow patients and surgeons to walk inside the CT and MRI –which has been proven to provide better communication of medical information between surgeons and patients and surgeons and their peers. This "walk-in" experience is now available on a system-wide-scale, enhancing efficiency in the consultation and surgical planning workflow for multiple specialties."


About Surgical Theater
Surgical Theater, the market leader in virtual and augmented reality healthcare services, is the first to combine cutting-edge fighter jet flight simulation technology with a patient's own anatomy scans. Rendered from comprehensive combined modalities of CT, MRI as well as advanced post processing images such as DTI and BOLD, the 360° virtual reality fly-through is designed to allow surgeons to walk and fly-through a reconstruction of the patient's own anatomy and pathology. Surgeons literally walk in the space between the white matter tracks and the tumor, being fully immersed, gaining unprecedented situational awareness and clarity of assessment. By simply turning their head, the surgeon can further explore the anatomy and plan the craniotomy, surgical path, trajectory, corridor, and the entire surgical strategy. This "walk-in" inside the pathology is proven to increase patient satisfaction improve patient engagement increase financial performance.
