Company Profile

The Computer Aided Surgery and Medical Image Processing Laboratory (CASIM Lab) at the School of Engineering and Computer Science, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem was founded by Prof. Leo Joskowicz in 1996. Our goal is to conduct groundbreaking interdisciplinary research to develop innovative computer-based methods for assisting clinicians in the diagnosis, planning, execution, and evaluation of surgical procedures. We follow a synergistic methodology, which consists of developing the basic building blocks for computer-aided diagnosis and surgery while simultaneously developing solutions for specific clinical applications. The lab conducts basic and applied interdisciplinary research in close collaboration with several departments at the Hadassah University Hospital in Ein-Karem, Jerusalem with companies in Israel and abroad. The main clinical areas of interest include: - Orthopaedics - Neurosurgery - Radiology The main technical areas include: - Surgical navigation - Medical robotics - Registration and calibration - Medical image processing - Patient-specific medical modeling
