At Brainlab, we digitize medical workflows from diagnosis to therapy, and our innovative ecosystem forms the basis for modern healthcare technology. We help healthcare providers build three-dimensional patient-specific models with data that is structured, mapped and aggregated with industry-leading artificial intelligence. This forms the basis of our navigation system for the human body, with which clinicians can safely remove brain tumors, place screws in the spine precisely and irradiate breast tumors with millimetric precision. Our robotics and mixed reality technologies and expertise allow users to connect and innovate between the digital and physical worlds. In addition, Brainlab technologies power the collection of structured long-term data and medical registries. Through the neuroscience of play, Brainlab advances clinical training and education, promoting the adaptation to technological advances and creating digital models of complete interventions. Our digital ecosystem is an open interface and forms a framework for third parties to accelerate innovation in other clinical areas as well. Brainlab systems are established in around 4,000 hospitals in 120 countries to offer doctors and patients better treatment possibilities. At the forefront of health technology for over 35 years, the company headquarters are in Munich, and we employ around 2,000 people of 87 nationalities in 25 locations.

One year ago today was the inauguration of the Munich-Riem 1970 Memorial Site. On February 10th, 56 years ago, during a terrorist attack at the former Munich-Riem Airport, the current site of Brainlab headquarters, Israeli-German passenger Arie Katzenstein died while protecting others.

With this memorial, created through a public-private partnership with München Landeshauptstadt and outstanding artist Alicja Kwade, we now have a space for year-round remembrance and reflection.

As we come together to reflect on the tragedy, we are grateful for everyone who helped make this memorial possible.

🚴 What do professional sports and surgery have in common?
Marginal gains. Small improvements leading to monumental results.

In this latest issue of Beyond the Lab, Brainlab EMEA President, Nils Ehrke, and Professor Bernhard Meyer, MD, Director of Neurosurgery at the TUM Klinikum Rechts der Isar in Munich, Germany, delve into surgical robotics and how they fit into the concept of “marginal gains” in the neurosurgical operating room.

We’re proud to share that the University of Colorado Anschutz Department of Neurosurgery has completed its first patient cases with Loop-X®, marking the first installation of this technology in the state of Colorado. ✨

This milestone is rooted in a clear vision: giving patients access to the most advanced imaging possible. Newly appointed department chair Peter Fecci, MD, PhD—a longtime Brainlab user—advocated for bringing Loop-X to Colorado from the moment he stepped into his new role. His belief in the technology comes from years of experience seeing how it can enhance intraoperative visualization and support clinical decision-making. The radiology team was quick to nickname Loop-X "Stargate 3000" and decked it out with stickers to fit the theme.

“The excitement across the hospital speaks to what this means for the community. With Loop-X, our surgical team can offer patients a new level of confidence during complex procedures, helping ensure they receive the highest standard of treatment close to home.” — Dr. Peter Fecci

We’re honored to support the University of Colorado as they expand access to advanced care and continue shaping neurosurgery for the patients and families they serve.

Our year didn’t just start—it kicked off at full speed. 🚴⚡
The historic airport tower at the Brainlab HQ in Munich turned into a powerhouse of motion, music and motivation as colleagues came together for an afternoon full of sweat, smiles and purpose.

From “Lederhosen & Sirtaki Ride” to “Killing Me Softly”, “Pedal to the Metal” and “Rave on Wheels,” every ride was fueled by great energy and even greater people.

Beyond the burn, the impact mattered too: all proceeds were donated to support better healthcare worldwide.
Huge thanks to our incredible gym team—Ariane, Lukas, Ionna and Roberto—for organizing, motivating and cheering us on from the first beat to the last sprint. You turned a workout into a moment that truly brought people together.

Unsere kleinste Navigationsplattform hat ein besonderes Projekt begleitet: Kick® wurde von Prof. Dr. Ehab Shiban und dem Team der Medizinische Universität Lausitz - Carl Thiem (MUL – CT) in Cottbus bei neurochirurgischen Eingriffen am Bugando Medical Centre in Mwanza, Tansania eingesetzt – in der einzigen neurochirurgischen Klinik einer Region mit rund 20 Millionen Menschen. 🌍

Viele Patient:innen kommen dort erst in die Klinik, wenn Hirntumore bereits ungewöhnlich groß sind. Genau hier setzt die enge Zusammenarbeit zwischen der Medizinischen Universität Lausitz – Carl Thiem in Cottbus und dem Bugando Medical Centre an: Wissen teilen, gemeinsam operieren, voneinander lernen – und bessere Chancen ermöglichen. 🤝💡

„Diese extreme Größe der Tumore ist in Europa eher selten“, sagt Prof. Dr. Ehab Shiban, der mit seinem Team nach Mwanza reiste, um komplexe Eingriffe durchzuführen und neurochirurgische Expertise vor Ort zu stärken. Ursache dafür sind eine spätere Diagnostik und der erschwerte Zugang zu adäquaten Therapien.

Wir sind dankbar, dass Kick ein Teil dieser wichtigen Partnerschaft ist – und dazu beitragen kann, moderne Neurochirurgie auch in herausfordernden Umgebungen zugänglich zu machen. Ein besonderer Dank gilt unserem Partner in Südafrika, SNT-Brainlab, dessen Engagement und verlässliche Unterstützung maßgeblich zum Gelingen dieses Projekts beigetragen haben.

Unser besonderer Dank gilt dem Einsatzteam vor Ort:

▪️Dr. Henning Kahl (Facharzt für Strahlentherapie, Augsburg),
▪️Dr. Gerald Mayaya (Chefarzt der Neurochirurgie, BMC),
▪️Prof. Dr. med. Ehab Shiban, MHBA, M. Sc. (Chefarzt der Neurochirurgie, MUL – CT)
▪️Dr. Maria Kipele (Assistenzärztin der Neurochirurgie, MUL – CT).

Und natürlich auch unserem Kollegen aus Südafrika, der extra nach Tansania gereist ist:
▪️Jean Croukamp (SNT_Brainlab)

Dieses Projekt zeigt ganz klar: Together we’re making an impact for patients worldwide. 💙
