Emory surgeons pilot intuitive 3D modeling tool to improve surgery experience for lung cancer patients
Since November, Emory surgeons have been piloting new software that creates a three-dimensional digital image of a patient's lungs. Having access to a 3D model makes removing hard-to-reach cancerous cells more efficient and precise. Think of it as the first time a cartographer added mountains and canyons to the layout of a map—only in this case, that map leads straight to saving a patient's life.
