CLASSICA
Validating AI in classifying cancer in real-time surgery.
The Classica project validates AI-driven imaging and decision support in real-time cancer surgery, utilizing breakthrough research in fluorescence and perfusion analysis. The goal is to develop an operating room-standard tool, validate its performance, address obstacles, and create clinical guidelines for adoption.
Arctur`s role
ARCTUR is responsible for refining and supporting the AI system in the Classica project, which involves system porting, co-designing the clinical system, developing the decision support system, verifying the software, creating user interfaces, and providing technical support.
