Quantum Surgical et l’AP-HP signent un partenariat pour la recherche en IA dans le traitement précoce du cancer
Montpellier, France, February 11, 2020 – Quantum Surgical, an innovative company specializing in medical robotics, and AP-HP (Assistance Publique – Hôpitaux de Paris) have announced their collaboration on a future robotic solution.
This collaboration is part of a research project led by Professor Valérie Vilgrain, Head of the Radiology Department at Beaujon Hospital, AP-HP. The study is based on health data from patients admitted to AP-HP for liver tumor ablation, collected within the AP-HP’s Health Data Warehouse (EDS).
This partnership enables Quantum Surgical to access these data in order to develop and evaluate, together with radiologists, artificial intelligence algorithms aimed at facilitating minimally invasive treatments for liver cancer.
The project has received approval from the AP-HP EDS Scientific and Ethics Committee.
“We are honored and delighted by this collaboration. These data will allow us to expand use cases and advance medical image analysis as part of our artificial intelligence project,” said Bertin Nahum, President and Founder of Quantum Surgical.
“AI research is an excellent opportunity to foster academic–industry collaborations,” said Professor Valérie Vilgrain, Head of the Radiology Department at Beaujon Hospital, AP-HP.
