Avatar Medical, a pioneer in real-time, patient-specific 3D medical imaging, announced on October 1, 2026, that its flagship solution, Avatar Medical Vision, can now be launched directly from within a patient's Epic Systems electronic health record (EHR). This integration gives clinicians seamless access to interactive, patient-specific 3D anatomy during consultations and surgical planning.
The significance of this development lies in its potential to transform clinical workflows by embedding advanced visualization into the tools clinicians already use daily. Epic is one of the most widely used EHR systems, and by enabling Avatar Medical Vision to be launched from within the patient's record, clinicians can access interactive 3D anatomy in just a few clicks. This reduces the time and effort required to view patient-specific 3D models, making it more likely that such technology will be used routinely in clinical conversations.
Avatar Medical Vision transforms standard CT and MRI scans into interactive 3D representations. These models can help clinicians communicate complex anatomy and treatment options with patients more effectively. By bringing patient-specific 3D closer to the clinical conversation, the integration supports shared decision-making and may improve patient understanding and satisfaction. For the healthcare industry, this represents a step toward more personalized and visually-driven care, potentially leading to better surgical outcomes and more efficient consultations.
This integration is another step toward Avatar Medical's broader vision for Visual Intelligence for Surgery. With the first implementation underway at UHealth - University of Miami Health System, Avatar Medical is working to make visual intelligence accessible throughout the surgical care journey, from consultation and preoperative planning through the operating room. The company aims to provide a scalable solution that transforms medical imaging into actionable visual information wherever critical surgical decisions are made.
Founded in 2020, Avatar Medical has FDA-cleared and CE-marked technology products and works with more than 20 hospitals across the U.S. and Europe. The company's technology originates from research conducted at Institut Curie and Institut Pasteur. For more information, visit avatarmedical.ai.
