Mount Sinai Medical Center Integrates AI Technology to Enhance Patient Care
Miami Beach, FL – Mount Sinai Medical Center has become the first institution in South Florida to implement advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technology in its Aortic Center, revolutionizing the treatment of complex aortic conditions. This innovative approach leverages AI-driven image-based guidance to improve surgical precision, reduce radiation exposure, and enhance patient outcomes.
The AI platform, developed by UK-based Cydar Medical, provides real-time, 3D visualizations of a patient’s anatomy during minimally invasive procedures. This technology allows surgeons to navigate with greater accuracy, decreasing the need for contrast dyes and minimizing radiation exposure, thereby reducing potential risks to kidney function. Dr. Micheal Ayad, Co-Director of the Aortic Center, emphasized the significance of this advancement:
"The incorporation of an AI image-based guidance program allows us to decrease radiation use on patients and decrease contrast or dye usage, which decreases the risk of problems with kidney function after these procedures, and allows us to perform these procedures in a more expedient manner."

This multidisciplinary approach combines the expertise of cardiac surgeons, vascular surgeons, cardiologists, and geneticists to tailor treatments for each patient, recognizing the unique nature of aortic diseases. Dr. Ayad noted,
"When you have a collaboration of different specialists, you are not getting a one-size-fits-all therapy but rather a custom-made approach." (prnewswire.com)
The integration of AI into Mount Sinai’s Aortic Center signifies a commitment to advancing patient care through cutting-edge technology. By embracing AI, the center aims to set a new standard in the treatment of complex aortic conditions, ensuring better outcomes and a higher quality of life for patients.
