We are proud to share that Spirecut, our partner for advancing AI‑powered image analysis tools for ultrasound‑guided surgery, has been named a finalist in the prestigious GenAI Zürich Awards. The event took place on April 1, 2025, at Technopark Zürich (spirecut.com).

Showcasing SoNIT: A Joint Innovation

At the awards finale, Spirecut presented the innosuisse funded SoNIT project—Sonography Nerve Instrument Tracking—which integrates real-time sonography with AI‑driven image analysis to enhance the precision and safety of minimally invasive procedures such as treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger.

This milestone highlights the synergy between Spirecut and its academic collaborators—FHNW, iCoSys- HES‑SO, and Insel Gruppe—under the support of Innosuisse.

A Tribute to Innovation, Collaboration, and Future Potential

While the SoNIT project did not secure the top award, the recognition as a finalist marks a significant achievement. For iCoSys, this recognition reinforces our commitment to fostering impactful AI research and application in healthcare. We salute Spirecut for this honor and look forward to delivering even more innovative, practical solutions for hand surgery.
