The first AR-guided surgery using only the C-arm in Thailand was successfully performed
at Thailand Veterans General Hospital by Dr. Chaiyos Chaichankul. The 78-year-old
patient had preoperative symptoms of leg numbness, radiating pain, and difficulty
walking. After the surgery, the patient’s nerve numbness in the legs disappeared,
and the pain was significantly reduced.

The day after the surgery, the patient could sit up and walk, and was discharged
four days later, resuming work in two weeks. Dr. Chaiyos Chaichankul remarked, “
The AR technology of the Caduceus S surgical navigation system allows us to precisely
locate and treat the affected area, greatly increasing the success rate of surgeries
and accelerating patient recovery.

Additionally, SURGLASSES completed the first AR-guided surgery combined with O-arm
technology at Chulalongkorn Hospital, led by renowned Associate Professor Prof. 
Wicharn Yingsakmongkol, M.D., and performed by Dr. Vit. The patient, a 48-year-old
woman, had a preoperative back pain level of 10 out of 10. Post-surgery, her pain
immediately reduced to 4, and two weeks later, it was completely gone. Dr. Vit stated,“
Using the Caduceus S system in surgery not only enhances our precision but also 
shortens patient recovery time. We look forward to utilizing this innovative technology
in more surgeries in the future.”

The Caduceus S AR surgical navigation system is an advanced tool specifically designed
for augmented reality spine surgery. Through its 3D visualization capabilities, 
surgeons can clearly view the internal anatomy of patients during procedures, including
bones, tissues, and organs, thereby improving surgical accuracy and outcomes. AR
minimally invasive spine surgery and spine navigation technology are becoming integral
parts of modern healthcare, with SURGLASSES leading the charge in this field.

SURGLASSES CEO Min-Liang Wang commented, “We are thrilled with the significant clinical
outcomes achieved by the Caduceus S surgical navigation system in Thailand. We are
grateful for the collaboration with Dr. Chaiyos Chaichankul as well as the efforts
of our research teams in Taiwan and the US. These successes demonstrate the potential
of our technology to enhance the quality of healthcare.”

SURGLASSES is dedicated to addressing the limitations of current medical imaging
technology through the use of AR. The Caduceus S system enables clinicians to visualize
patients’ internal anatomical structures in 3D during surgery, including bones, 
tissues, and organs, thereby improving surgical precision and outcomes. The AR navigation
technology also allows for future collaboration with remote clinicians through shared
visualization and real-time communication, providing guidance during collaborative
patient care.
