Overview

Inzipio is an AI-powered medical software platform designed to automate and streamline preoperative virtual surgical planning. Developed as a spin-off from RWTH Aachen University, the platform aims to transition complex planning tasks from external service providers directly to clinical teams.

The software is primarily designed for:

  • Specialties: Oral and maxillofacial surgeons, reconstructive plastic surgeons, and clinical engineers.
  • Care Settings: Academic medical centers, hospitals, and surgical clinics performing complex reconstructive procedures.

Inzipio integrates into the clinical workflow by establishing an automated process chain that spans from initial medical imaging to the final preparation for surgery. Key capabilities of the platform include:

  • AI-Based Image Segmentation: Automatically segments 3D anatomical structures from CT scans, even in cases with complex dental implants or imaging artifacts.
  • Virtual Surgical Planning: Automates patient-specific planning for complex procedures, with an initial focus on reconstructive facial surgeries utilizing bony autologous transplants (such as fibula grafts).
  • Surgical Guide Generation: Enables the automated design of precise surgical cutting guides that can be 3D printed for direct use in the operating room.
