The Dartmouth General Hospital is expecting the arrival of a GI Genius intelligent endoscopy machine in Apr. as the technology was approved for use in Canada. The AI scans images taken during a colonoscopy and detects possible pre-cancerous lesions that may otherwise go undetected. About 800 cases of colon cancer were diagnosed in N.S. in 2021 and the disease is the second-most common cause of cancer deaths. The hospital already serves people across the province with a dedicated room for colon cancer screening, as well as two other endoscopy suites. QEII in Halifax, for its part, addedhttps://www.canhealth.com/2022/03/31/halifax-a-centre-of-excellence-for-robot-assisted-surgeries/ a new robotic device (Stryker’s Mako SmartRobotics) for knee replacement surgeries. It’s only the second robot of its kind in Canada.
