brAIn Shoulder Positioning

The brAIn™ Shoulder Positioning software is a cloud-based application intended for shoulder surgeons. The software does not perform surgical planning but provides tools to assist the surgeon with planning primary anatomic and reverse total shoulder replacement surgeries using FX Shoulder Solutions implants. The software is accessible via a web-based interface, where the user is prompted to upload their patient’s shoulder CT-scan (DICOM series) accompanied with their information in a dedicated interface. The software automatically segments (using machine learning) and performs measurements on the scapula and humerus anatomy contained in the DICOM series. These segmentations serve as a foundation for the surgeon’s manual planning, which is performed using an interactive 3D viewer that allows for soft tissue visualization. The surgeon positions the glenoid and humerus implants manually within this same 3D interface using a dedicated manipulation panel. The changes in shoulder anatomy resultant from the implants are relayed in a post-position interface that displays information related to distalization and lateralization. The software outputs a planning multimodal summary that includes textual information (patient information, pre- and post-op measurements) and visual information (screen captures of the shoulder pre- and post-implantation).
