CAMES and Johnson & Johnson enter new strategic collaboration on advanced 3D technology
A new strategic collaboration on cutting-edge 3D technology has been launched. CAMES and Johnson & Johnson MedTech, Denmark, have just signed a collaboration agreement that opens up a whole new world of possibilities for using 3D technology in a training and simulation environment.
Technology
Pre-operative planning using only 2D CT or MRI scans cannot always identify accurate patient-specific anatomical variations prior to surgery. 3D technology, on the other hand, which is at the heart of the collaboration, makes it possible to use existing medical imaging, including CT or MRI images, to create interactive 3D models of vital organs. This can help with localisation and estimated measurements of suspected nodules and tumours, as well as relationships with surrounding anatomical structures. It enables improved pre-operative planning with the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes.
Strategic collaboration
The strategic collaboration provides a unique opportunity to validate the technology within a training and simulation environment. Therefore, the first Danish launch will be at CAMES, where the technology will be demonstrated to leading surgeons. CAMES has already built up strong competences in 3D simulation and therefore the collaboration can lead the way for further innovation in 3D printing, surgical training, planning and simulation. The collaborators will collect data and feedback on the user experience with the technology.
The strategic collaboration between CAMES and Johnson & Johnson MedTech Denmark will initially focus on 3D technology - although other topics such as robotics and digital solutions are already in dialogue. This strategic collaboration will lead the way.

New strategic collaboration on advanced 3D-technology between Copenhagen Academy for Medical Education and Simulation (CAMES) and Johnson & Johnson Medtech Denmark
CAMES and Johnson & Johnson MedTech, Denmark, have established a strategic collaboration which focus on cutting edge 3D technology.
The technology
Pre-operative planning with only 2D CT or MRI scans can be limited in accurately identifying patient-specific anatomical variations prior to an operation. The 3D technology within the collaboration makes it possible to use existing medical imaging, including CT or MRI images, to create interactive 3D models for vital organs. This may aid in the localization and approximate measurements of suspected nodules and tumors as well as relationships to surrounding anatomical structures. This enables improved pre-operative planning with the ultimate aim of improving patient outcomes.
The strategic collaboration
The strategic collaboration provides a unique opportunity to validate the technology within a training and simulation setting. Therefore, the first Danish launch will be at CAMES where the technology will be showcased to leading surgeons. CAMES has already build strong competencies within 3D simulation, and therefore the collaboration may lead the way for further innovation within 3D-printing, surgical training, planning and simulation. The collaborators will gather data and feedback on the user experience with the technology.
The strategic collaboration between CAMES and Johnson & Johnson MedTech will initially focus on the 3D technology - however there is already dialogue on other subjects for example robotics and digital solutions. This strategic collaboration will lead the way!
