From radiologists to cardiologists; neurologists to anesthetists – medical professionals around the world are opting to carry out minimally-invasive interventional procedures. The reason? A smaller entry wound and less invasive surgery leads to faster recovery times, and ultimately, better patient outcomes.

However, even though visualization, control and imaging technologies continue to evolve, current options fall short of open procedures. Moreover, having many different data sources to review during each procedure adds further complexity.

SentiAR is digital health, software device company adding a new dimension to clinical practice in interventional procedures. Spun out of Washington University, we are developing the first 3D visualization platform using real-time holography of the patient's anatomy and catheter location, ''floating'' over the patients, with a goal to provide the clinician and patient a faster, safer delivery of care. SentiAR’s mission is to transform the experience for both patient and clinician in interventional procedures with a 3D augmented reality platform featuring real-time holographic visualization of the patient’s actual anatomy, “floating” over the patient. The visualization is fully controllable “hands-free” by the clinician, providing an ergonomic breakthrough for the treatment and analysis of cardiac arrhythmias within an interventional catheter lab environment. SentiAR is developing the platform for eventual FDA submission.
