Avatar Medical, a pioneer in real-time, patient-specific 3D medical imaging, announced on October 1, 2026, that its Avatar Medical Vision platform can now be launched directly from within a patient’s Epic Systems electronic health record (EHR). This integration embeds interactive 3D anatomy into the clinical workflow, enabling clinicians to access detailed visualizations during consultations and surgical planning with just a few clicks. The development marks a significant step toward making advanced imaging a seamless part of routine care.
The new integration addresses a longstanding challenge in clinical practice: the gap between static medical images and dynamic, patient-specific 3D models. By launching Avatar Medical Vision from Epic, clinicians can transform standard CT and MRI scans into interactive 3D representations without leaving the EHR. This near-instant access supports more informed decision-making and enhances communication with patients, who can better understand complex anatomy and treatment options when viewing their own 3D models.

The integration is part of Avatar Medical’s broader vision for Visual Intelligence for Surgery, which aims to make visual intelligence accessible throughout the surgical care journey—from consultation and preoperative planning to the operating room. The first implementation is underway at UHealth – University of Miami Health System, signaling real-world adoption. With Epic being one of the most widely used EHR systems, this integration could accelerate the adoption of patient-specific 3D visualization across hospitals and clinics.
Avatar Medical was founded in 2020 and has developed FDA-cleared and CE-marked technology products. Its flagship solution, Avatar Medical Vision, converts CT and MRI scans into interactive, lifelike 3D visualizations instantly and without segmentation, giving clinicians a more intuitive way to understand patient-specific anatomy. The company works with more than 20 hospitals across the U.S. and Europe, and its technology originates from research conducted at Institut Curie and Institut Pasteur.

The implications of this announcement extend beyond convenience. By embedding 3D visualization into the EHR, Avatar Medical is helping to standardize access to advanced imaging tools, potentially reducing variability in surgical planning and patient communication. As healthcare systems continue to seek efficiencies and improve outcomes, integrations like this could become a model for how specialized technologies are delivered at the point of care. Moreover, the partnership with Epic—a dominant player in the EHR market—lends credibility and scalability to Avatar Medical’s approach. For media resources, including a press kit, the company provides additional materials. This integration represents a tangible step toward a future where visual intelligence is a routine part of clinical decision-making, ultimately benefiting both clinicians and patients.
