GoKawiilLondon surgeons use AI system to guide pituitary tumor removal, preserving patient's vision
Neurosurgeons at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London used an AI tool during a May operation to remove a large pituitary tumor from 48-year-old Rhys Hibbert. The system, trained on hundreds of past surgical videos, analyzed live footage to highlight nearby nerves and blood vessels in real time, helping surgeons avoid damaging critical structures. Hibbert regained clear eyesight after the procedure, having previously needed glasses and walking aids.
