Activ Surgical said today it is launching ActivEdge, an artificial-intelligence and machine-learning platform designed to improve surgical procedures and outcomes. The Boston-based company said it will be available initially in the U.S. and next year worldwide.
Activ Surgical said it will initially focus on promoting the new software for the most common laparoscopic procedures, including cholecystectomy, colectomy, hysterectomy and gastrectomy, where blood flow and critical structure identification are crucial to optimal outcomes.
