Signify Premium Insight: MediView Set to Augment Surgeons with $15m Funding

Earlier this month interventional augmented reality start-up MediView XR secured $15m in strategic funding from a number of well-respected backers, including GE HealthCare, Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic, among others.

MediView’s solutions combine surgical navigation with augmented reality, to give surgeons what it calls “3D X-ray vision”, in a bid to equip them with greater surgical visualisation and navigation tools, and ultimately offer better care. In addition, the vendor says the tools can also facilitate remote collaboration, and in doing so, improve access to care in underserved populations.

MediView has now raised approximately $29.5m in funding. With its latest funding it plans to continue to establish and expand its multi-tier platform. This, it says, includes generating additional clinical evidence, developing products and achieving milestones in intellectual property, regulation, commercialisation and product launches
