About the company

Medalign Arabia is the Saudi joint venture localizing MedAlign AR's robotic and augmented-reality surgical navigation technology for orthopedic, spine and musculoskeletal surgery. The company is establishing the clinical, regulatory and service capability required to bring next-generation precision surgery to Kingdom operating theatres.

The solution

The platform combines robotics, spatial computing, augmented reality and real-time navigation to let surgeons see beneath the skin. Pre-operative imaging, infrared motion tracking and AR visualization are fused into a live model of the patient's anatomy, enabling surgeon-guided or autonomous bone resection with sub-millimetre precision.

Initially focused on orthopedic oncology and spine surgery, the technology extends to knee and hip arthroplasty and trauma. The clinical benefit is accuracy: better-aligned resections mean less invasive procedures, shorter recovery and improved long-term function — and the platform is a step toward genuinely patient-specific surgery.
