Abdul Latif Jameel Health (Abdul Latif Jameel General Trading Co., Japan (ALJGT)) has announced a new strategic collaboration with Holoeyes Inc
The collaboration is for the distribution of their 3D virtual reality (VR) technology surgery support system and medical education software to a potential market of over 2.4 million physicians across the selected Middle East and African countries.
This new collaboration aims to contribute to the enhanced efficiency and safety of surgery, improving standards and the quality of medical education through advanced medical imaging technology. Holoeyes has developed VR software suite that dramatically enhances medical treatments to achieve this. The suite includes:
Holoeyes XR: a multi-person interface that can be used for conferencing, consulting, surgical training and also to assist in obtaining a patient’s informed consent.
Holoeyes Edu: specifically tailored for medical and nursing students and medical residents to drive education and training.
Holoeyes VS: for secure multi-physician remote conferencing (building in Holoeyes MD and XR)
Holoeyes MD: the core technology application to create the VR models and enable recordings, slicing, layering and annotation including augmented reality markers.
With anatomical information easy to understand and share, surgeons can proceed safely and accurately with Holoeyes’ VR technology. To perform complex medical treatments and surgery, it is important to accurately recognise the position of the problem and its positional relationship with surrounding blood vessels and organs. Currently, CT and MRI are used to understand patients’ anatomical information. However, understanding the intricate structure of the human body based on two-dimensional imaging requires significant experience and training. Particularly in the field of surgery, verbal instruction alone for young doctors on advanced surgical skills and know-how is no substitute for 3D experience.
Abdul Latif Jameel General Trading will together with Holoeyes aim to develop new educational content and training tools using VR technology for the dental industry. ALJGT aims to widely promote new educational content and training tools through unique alliance between universities and dentists in Japan and across Middle East and Africa and beyond.
