Surgalign Holdings, Inc. announced the release of HOLO AI Insights. HOLO AI Insights enables customers, partners, and clinical researchers to take advantage of the Company's HOLO artificial intelligence (AI) portfolio through asecure, highly scalable cloud platform for automated analysis of medical images. HOLO AI, Surgalign's portfolio of AI technology, utilizes convolutional neural network technology to automate various tasks such as segmenting medical images, measuring anatomic structures, and planning pedicle screw placement.

As part of Surgalign's HOLO AI portfolio, HOLO AI Insights analyzes standard protocol lumbar spine MRI images, providing quantitative measurements of 16 different anatomic structures in the spine. Currently, this image processing is being utilized for retrospective data analysis of patient specific medical information from participating sites. The insights generated have the potential for multiple applications in population health, clinical research, and in the future, patient care.

Surgalign has partnered with neuro and orthopedic spine surgeons Hani Malone MD, Greg Mundis MD and Robert Eastlack MD of the San Diego Spine Foundation for the first research deployment of HOLO AI Insights. HOLO AI also powers Surgalign's HOLO Portal surgical guidance system, by automatically segmenting intra-operative 3D images and proposing a plan for surgery. The HOLO Portal system received FDA 510(k) clearance in January of 2022.

The addition of HOLO AI Insights is a further step in Surgalign's mission to transform patient care with artificial intelligence.
