Why it Matters:

Despite advancements in medical imaging, surgeons often face significant challenges in navigating complex anatomy and distinguishing between cancerous and healthy tissue. Starting with Kidney Cancer surgeries, the introduction of Digital Twin Assisted Surgery (DTAS) technology aims to address these challenges by enabling real-time analysis of patient data to provide dynamic navigation aids and insights specific to the patient. This will improve surgical outcomes, minimise operating times and reduce patient waiting lists. It will also allow for:

• Better anticipation of surgical challenges.

• Simulation of complex scenarios before the first incision.

• Improved communication across surgical teams

Our Mission:
To transform surgical care through digital innovation by:

• Creating patient-specific digital twins for preoperative planning.

• Enhancing surgical precision and reducing variability.

• Advancing research in predictive modeling and personalized medicine.

Our Vision:
A world where every patient benefits from a digitally optimized, safer, and more personalized surgical experience.

Who We Are:
We are a collaborative group of engineers, surgeons, and scientists from the Universities of Strathclyde, Edinburgh, Cambridge, and Imperial College, united by a common goal to revolutionise surgical care through advanced technology.
