AI-driven Disease Detection Enhances Prostate Cancer Surgery
Researchers at Vancouver Coastal Health have made a groundbreaking discovery in prostate cancer surgery by applying stimulated Raman histology (SRH) technology.
  - Groundbreaking Application: Dr. Miles Mannas led the world's first study using SRH in robotic-assisted prostate cancer removal, enabling real-time AI-supported tissue analysis during surgery.
- Transformative Efficiency: Pairing SRH with robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) achieved 100% margin assessment accuracy in just four minutes, compared to the standard 70-minute pathology process.
- Improved Patient Outcomes: SRH enables surgeons to make faster, more precise intraoperative decisions, balancing cancer removal with nerve preservation to minimize side effects and recovery time.
