Private equity firm HealthpointCapital acquired a majority stake in ImmersiveTouch.
ImmersiveTouch’s ImmersiveView platform is a patented, proprietary Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) software solution for surgical planning, navigation and patient-customized surgical guides. Currently focused on facial and thoracic trauma surgery for Craniomaxillofacial, ENT, Plastic, Neuro and Trauma surgeons (CMF/T), the platform features a range of capabilities to create interactive, 3D, real-time surgical plans optimized for efficiency.
Utilizing a VR headset, surgeons can streamline CMF/T surgeries by rapidly planning surgical cases in 3D virtual reality, instantly printing anatomical models and exporting designs for custom surgical guides and implants within 12 to 48 hours. In the operating room, that surgical plan or 3D image can be superimposed on the body with the surgeon wearing Augmented Reality glasses.
“Imagine the surgeon being able to travel inside the body virtually, seeing all of the anatomy and planning their surgery from the inside. The surgeon can then virtually fix the fractures, order custom implants and instantly 3D-print physical models. Then prior to surgery in the OR, the surgeon is able to see through the skin, like x-ray vision, and visualize their surgical plan along with the bones, fractures, blood vessels, nerves and muscles,” said Mike Mogul, HealthpointCapital’s Managing Partner. “This is available today at Immersive Touch, our latest investment at HealthpointCapital.”
