Short description
The Innovation Center Computer Assisted Surgery develops digital technologies for future clinical applications.
ICCAS is an interdisciplinary institute and research center at the Faculty of Medicine ( Leipzig University) and is the university-based transfer center for medical technology in Saxony and Central Germany. Experts from the fields of medicine, computer science and engineering work together to develop innovative medical technologies to improve diagnosis, therapy decisions and surgical interventions, thus forming the interface between innovation and application. Inside the institute’s own research operating theater, translations of novel medical technologies and therapeutic procedures are evaluated, based on the needs of clinicians.
The ICCAS acts as an interface between clinical requirements and commercial implementation and conducts research in close cooperation with German and international industrial partners. As a Saxon medical transfer center, it has a quality management system certified according to EN ISO 13485. In addition, the ICCAS maintains an active exchange with local and regional scientific institutes. The research and development results of the ICCAS facilitate the work of clinical staff, increase treatment safety and lead to more economical workflows in the operating room. ICCAS presents its new technologies to the public and specialist audiences at annual events.
