General Case Study

Endoscopic Video Analysis

The challenge
  • An innovative start-up initiative in the endoscopy space wanted to quickly prove out a range of AI benefits for video analysis application
Our approach
  • The RSIP Vision R&D team, in close collaboration with in-house and client medical experts, developed a multi-functional proof of concept
  • We quickly & efficiently built key capabilities including pathology detection, image segmentation, motion estimation, and image quality
  • During the development process, RSIP Vision discovered novel AI use cases with strong additional business potential, enhancing our client’s value proposition
The outcome
  • We supported client, leading to a successful transaction with a large industry-leading corporation
  • We developed & delivered novel core technologies, providing a strong basis for full solution development
  • At this time, production and solution development is underway in continued partnership with RSIP Vision

Stone tracking - urology

Stone tracking during kidney stone removal

Urolithiasis, or kidney stones, is a common pathology affecting nearly 10% of the population in the USA. There are various treatment options for urolithiasis. The preferable method is natural-passage – simply urinate the stones. If stone size renders natural-passage impossible, other options exist. Stones can be removed using ureteroscopy (URS) or extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), or in a percutaneous manner – PCNL (percutaneous nephrolithotomy). In URS, an endoscope is inserted through the urethra and ureters until the stone is reached. Then small tools are used to grab the stone

Tissue Sparing in urology

AI-Assisted Tissue Sparing in Urology

Tissue sparing is a common practice during surgeries. This approach aims to remove as little as possible of the surrounding tissue during a procedure. Studies have shown that tissue sparing procedures have fewer complications and faster recovery time. In urology, tissue sparing is relevant in many surgical procedures, such as prostatectomy or cystectomy. Often a tumor needs to be removed, and it is preferable to preserve as much tissue without leaving cancer-cells behind. In prostatectomy by sparing tissue the neurovascular bundle (NVB) damage can be avoided, reducing the complication rate.

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

PCNL – Planning and real-time navigation

Urolithiasis, or kidney stones, is a common pathology affecting nearly 10% of the population in the USA. Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive urology procedure intended to remove stones from the kidney and proximal ureter which are less amiable to other endourological modalities, specifically large stones, or in the presence of abnormal anatomy. This procedure requires real-time ultrasound and/or X-ray guidance and is usually preceded with a CT scan for diagnosis. Gaining access is the first and most challenging part of the procedure. The tract needs to be created

Prostate Tumor Segmentation

Implementing AI to Improve PI-RADS Scoring

Prostate Cancer and PI-RADS scoring Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the USA. When diagnosed early, mortality rates are very low, therefore, most men over the age of 60 years undergo screening for prostate cancer that includes PSA levels and digital rectal examination. Common practice dictates that when Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are high, or when the patient is in a higher risk group, a prostate MRI scan is performed. This scan is read by a radiologist in search of lesions. To set an objective diagnosis for

Procedural Planning in urology

Procedural Planning in Urology

Challenges in Biopsies There are various types of urological cancers, the most common ones being prostate and kidney cancer. In cancer, early and accurate detection significantly improves survival rate and reduces treatment cost. Similar to other cancers, detection is performed using a biopsy – inserting a needle to the suspicious tissue and sampling it. Often there is uncertainty regarding exact positioning, so the tissue is penetrated several times to verify adequate sampling. The biopsy is performed with ultrasound (US) guidance – real-time imaging for needle tracking and tissue visualization. However,
