Cirrus maps help neurosurgeons make key decisions before and during surgery

Cirrus integrates into the existing clinical radiology imaging workflow. Once processed, the brain network maps are configured and easily imported into the hospital’s surgical planning and navigation system of choice.

HOW IT WORKS

Sora uses a Patented Supervised AI Machine Learning Approach to Brain Function Mapping and Analysis

OUR METHOD

Best-in-Breed Sora Approach

Supervised AI/ML Approach


Advantages
Consistency (Same Predefined Functions evaluated in Every Patient)
Purely Functional Analysis / Not Tied to Anatomy, which can be Misleading
Leverages Relationships Between Functions for Better Mapping Accuracy

Inferior Approaches

Seed Based Analysis


Advantages:
Simple & Intuitive (Defines the Location of a Central “Seed” for a Function in the Patient Anatomy)
Setting the Anatomical Location of the Seed can be Automated (Using AI)
Identifies Where Neural Activity is in Synchrony with the Seed

Limitations:
Inconsistent Across Patients (Depends on Seed Placement)
Anatomy Drives Seed Placement, which can be Misleading
Independent Evaluation of Each Function, Missing Inter-Function Relationships

Unsupervised Analysis


Advantages:
Useful in Identifying Novel Brain Functions (Research Use)
Separates Functions from One Another Well
Useful in Evaluating Hierarchy of Functions

Limitations:
Better for Research Use
Inconsistent Across Patients (No Predefined Functions)
Time-Consuming, Requiring Expert User
