Dr. Rick C. Sasso, renowned spinal surgeon to highlight Surgalign’s HOLO Portal™ Surgical Guidance System on the OrthoDome Panel on March 8, 2023

DEERFIELD, Ill., March 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Surgalign Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRGA), a global medical technology company focused on elevating the standard of care by driving the evolution of digital surgery, today announced its participation at the 2023 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (“AAOS”) Annual Meeting, which will take place March 7-11, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Over this five-day event, industry will gather to discuss the latest evidence-based advancements that are transforming the way medical professionals care for their patients. The Company is a participating sponsor of OrthoDome, an AAOS Annual Meeting experience that offers an immersive and comfortable video theater room showcasing orthopaedic surgical techniques and devices in 4K resolution video, narrated by live experts and chaired by Ronald A. Navarro, MD, FAAOS and Lisa K. Cannada, MD, FAAOS. On Wednesday, March 8, 2023, Dr. Vacarro will moderate the Spine Panel – OrthoDome session HT01 – taking place from 8:00 a.m. – 9:30 a.m. PT. This panel will include live discussions and video demonstrations from leading spine surgeons including:

  • Barrett I. Woods, MD, FAAOS
  • David Kate, MD
  • Jose A. Canseco, MD, PhD
  • Victor W. Hsu, MD, FAAOS
  • Rick C. Sasso, MD, FAAOS

Rick Sasso, MD, is a founding member and the president of Indiana Spine Group, the first practice to utilize the Company’s HOLO Portal Surgical Guidance System following receipt of U.S. Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) 510(k). Dr. Sasso is a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon, specializing in spine surgery. He is also a professor and chief of spine surgery at the Indiana University School of Medicine, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. Dr. Sasso will present “AI through the Continuum of Care”, which features Surgalign’s HOLO AI and HOLO Portal technologies as applied to diagnostic imaging, intra-operative surgical guidance, and population analytics.

Terry Rich, President and CEO of Surgalign, commented, “AAOS continues to help industry advance technologies and improve patient care, and we are especially excited for this year’s event, given the focus on spine care and the best technologies that drive better patient outcomes. We can’t thank Dr. Sasso and his team enough for their support as we work to commercialize HOLO Portal and leverage our HOLO AI platform to expand the use of AI and AR in the medical field.”

With FDA clearance, HOLO Portal became the world’s first surgical guidance system to incorporate artificial intelligence (“AI”) and augmented reality (“AR”). The first procedure was performed at Indiana Spine Hospital in Carmel, Indiana and since, over 30 cases have been performed. The HOLO Portal system’s AI processes intraoperative images to autonomously segment and label the anatomy and plan patient-specific pedicle screw trajectories that are approved by the surgeon. The system uses AR to overlay the segmented AI reconstruction over the patient’s actual anatomy, providing real-time 3D visualization throughout the surgical procedure, helping surgeons visualize trajectories, while guiding surgical instruments.
