Cydar Medical, a provider of procedure planning artificial intelligence software platform for endovascular surgeries, raised €10.5 million (£9.3 million) in Series A funding.
Pembroke Venture Capital Trust led the investment round with participation from Downing and existing seed investors.
With new funds, the company plans to advance and commercialize its artificial intelligence surgical maps platform that creates a patient-specific 3D map of soft tissue, providing an integrated solution for procedure planning, intra-operative navigation and post-procedure review. The AI and automation of processes within the novel software have been proven to increase clinician confidence and reduce procedure times, reduce radiation exposure for patients and the clinical team and enhance clinical workflow efficiencies. As AI gains knowledge from surgical procedures, it can assist in improving clinical decision-making and future treatment.
