EOS, Anatoscope Partner for Orthopedic Applications

Orthopedic medical imaging developer EOS Imaging has announced a partnership with software developer Anatoscope to combine virtual patient models with 2D and 3D images and datasets into EOS orthopedic applications.

Anatoscope’s software generates 3D digital avatars, based on a patient’s medical images, for the simulation of medical treatments. The exclusive agreement and associated licensing rights cover the development of patient avatars and their deformation. The model will take into account the patient corpulence and external body shape in combination with the patient’s skeletal images from an exam.

“Introducing a virtual patient model into our advanced 3D orthopedic applications will assist surgeons as they plan their patient’s spine treatments,” said Marie Meynadier, CEO of EOS imaging. “The Anatoscope agreement complements the ongoing internal developments with our partner Spinologics to bring within our EOSapps the most cost-effective and relevant solutions to image-based planning, simulation and control of orthopedic therapies.”

The first application of this technology will be introduced in 2017.
