Brain lab and Fujifilm Integrate Cutting-Edge Technology, Offering Advanced Capabilities to Neurosurgery Clinicians in the U.S.

Fujifilm and imaging

Diagnostic imaging maintains its pivotal role in the diagnosis and care of patients. Varying populations across the globe necessitate the availability of different diagnostic image solutions. Fujifilm has already developed a range of solutions tailored to specific requirements.

With our extensive array of imaging solutions, encompassing digital x-ray, 3D mammography, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, CT, and MRI, we provide a diverse portfolio that optimizes workflow efficiencies and delivers superior imaging capabilities. Our dedication to meeting the needs of clinicians and their patients is evident in our continuous investment in research and development, as well as our provision of world-class imaging solutions and post-sales support.

Brainlab

For more than 25 years, Brainlab has been at the forefront of innovation in the fields of surgery and radiation therapy. Through the development of cutting-edge hardware and software technology, Brainlab is committed to assisting healthcare providers, physicians, and their patients in the battle against cancer and other brain and body conditions.

At its core, Brainlab is focused on the transformation of digital medical technology. Their focus lies in the digitization, automation, and optimization of clinical workflows. The software they developed consolidates and correlates patient data to form an anatomical digital patient model, which undergoes continuous refinement and enhancement through the utilization of artificial intelligence and sophisticated algorithms. Through the integration of digital and physical realms, the software delivers and analyse crucial, personalized patient data precisely when it is required.

Brain lab and Fujifilm Integration

Fujifilm Arietta:  With its advanced power doppler, durable probes, and wider field of view, the Fujifilm Arietta Precision Ultrasound System significantly enhances image quality. It includes various probes designed for specific purposes, such as biopsies, robotic applications, and liver procedures.

Brainlab electromagnetic navigation: With the use of the Cranial EM software, the patient registration process becomes more precise and guided. To complete the registration, one must rapidly identify three pre-established landmarks and then freely choose additional surface points on the skin utilizing the unsterile registration pointer. The loaded patient data is matched with the patient's anatomy through an automatic process performed by the system.

The integration of Brainlab surgical navigation solutions and Fujifilm's ARIETTA Precision will simplify the setup process for cranial imaging and provide convenient workflows with pre-calibrated and sterilizable neurosurgery transducers. There is no longer a requirement for users to calibrate in the sterile field.

Moreover, the integration of these technologies offers neurosurgeons automatic view arrangements, allowing them to overlay intraoperative 3D ultrasound scans onto the preoperative dataset. This improves their comprehension of the resection cavity, offering a more comprehensive viewpoint.

By integrating this technology, neurosurgeons can greatly improve their practice, their facility, and most importantly, the well-being of their patients.

Surgeons can use the Brainlab Ultrasound Navigation software to easily identify any misalignment between a 3D ultrasound scan taken during surgery and a preoperative MRI.
