Creating a next generation surgical vision foundation model to unlock surgical data into realtime intelligence powering the future of surgery.
Surgery is the last major discipline in medicine still governed by intuition over data. 330M surgeries are conducted every year and 1 in 6 result in complication, it costs billions of dollars to correct this. A specialist surgeon's skill, built over 15/20years of training, lives entirely in their hands and their head. We founded Curium Life Tech to change this, permanently, and at scale. We are building the world's first Surgical Vision Foundation Model — a deep learning platform trained across the full spectrum of minimally invasive surgery. We have built a high value clinical application called SurgiMeasure, a realtime AI tool that converts any standard 2D laparoscopic video in 3D accurate anatomical measurements during surgery. Software only, no added hardware, no camera intrinsics or change in workflow. Curium Life, a surgeon founded, surgeon led who have lived this problem. An $8B market opportunity, built by surgeons for surgeons.
Funded by Angel investors, friends /family, incubator, and 13 surgeon investors on a convertible note model. Grants from Government of Karnataka and from IIT Indore foundation.
Three Provisional patents in 1) Image segmentation with enhanced accuracy 2) Computing HUAC score for Sarcopenia 3) Determining distances between points in a media | One patent granted in Hernia imaging methods.
