“By harnessing AI to transform standard scans into interactive 3D models, Surgical Theater is shaping surgical care by driving innovation in spine, cranial, and across other specialties.”

CLEVELAND, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Surgical Theater, the leader in surgical XR visualization, has surpassed 50,000 XR utilizations across spine, cranial, and other specialties, marking a major milestone in the continuum of surgical care. Its FDA-cleared eXperiential Reality^® (XR) platform harnesses AI to transform traditional medical imaging into immersive, clinically integrated 3D environments that bring unprecedented clarity to surgery. This milestone signals a new era where XR is becoming indispensable in modern surgery.

The announcement comes as Surgical Theater prepares to showcase new capabilities at CNS and NASS congresses this fall, where surgeons and hospital leaders will experience firsthand how XR transforms planning and intraoperative execution.

Surgical Theater first brought fighter-jet technology to medicine more than a decade ago, changing how surgeons visualize and prepare. That breakthrough has now scaled to tens of thousands of cases, establishing XR as an essential tool across cranial, spine, and other specialties.

“Our technology has now guided surgeons over 50,000 times, but the impact is measured far beyond numbers,” said Alon Zuckerman, President of Surgical Theater. “Each case represents a patient whose surgeon walked them through their condition in the clinic, practiced and planned the procedure in advance, and then carried that plan into the operating room with deeper insight and greater precision. We pioneered surgical XR, and we continue to set the standard by pushing the limits of how deeply surgeons can understand anatomy before making the first incision.”

Surgical Theater’s FDA-cleared XR platform including SyncAR, PlanXR and ConveyXR allows surgeons to step inside the patient’s anatomy, explore every angle, and rehearse each step-in advance. In the OR, Surgical Theater’s XR platform integrates seamlessly into navigation, microscopes and workflow, giving surgeons real-time visibility of patient anatomy that helps them anticipate challenges and stay aligned with their preoperative plan. This continuum of visualization is elevating how surgeons prepare, plan, and perform.

Reaching the 50,000-utilizations milestone is both a celebration and a catalyst. Surgical Theater also unveiled a refreshed brand identity that reflects its leadership role in medical visualization and its unwavering commitment to hospitals, surgeons, and patients. At the same time, new innovations are on the horizon to be launched this year. These advancements build on the company’s core promise: delivering technology that sharpens surgical precision, strengthens hospital systems, and advocates for patients in need of the best possible care.

“Every milestone we reach is ultimately about patients,” said Zuckerman. “Behind 50,000 times our platform was utilized, there are stories of families, children, and loved ones who placed their trust in their surgeon. Our role is to give surgeons the tools to honor that trust with the best possible precision and care; while standing shoulder to shoulder with hospitals to ensure they have technology that empowers them today and prepares them for tomorrow. As Surgical Theater advances beyond 50,000 utilizations, the company remains committed to shaping the next generation of surgical innovation”
