HoloSurge is a joint undertaking that brings European scientists and clinicians from high-tech companies, clinical centres, and research institutions in a consortium to deploy an innovative AI-based medical system that

  • enables automatic fusion and segmentation of state-of-the-art imaging modalities for interactive 3D holographic visualization of patients’ organs;
  • provides real-time surgical navigation, and
  • allows real-time cell-level cancer diagnostics. 

The solution will provide surgical teams with an unmatched holistic view of the patient’s anatomy and pathology in real-time at the point of care, before and during surgery. This innovation will be validated for cancer interventions while creating a trail of better-informed perioperative decision-making that can save countless lives. 

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No Project 101137233 — HoloSurge. Horizon Europe is the EU’s key funding programme for research and innovation, with a budget of €95.5 billion.
