The cardio-vascular imaging is the corner-stone for the stent graft follow-up. Combined treatement of an aortic chronic syndrome: 80 years old female patient: surgical treatment of chronic ascending aorta dissection and endovascular treatement of a chronic descending aorta dissection Nicolas Laurent Maxime Hubert Maxime Bertram Clinique Claude Bernard Metz Elsan #aorticdissection #cardiovascularimaging #endovascular #cardiacsurgery

We were thrilled to showcase the pivotal role of our envivoPC® technology in evaluating medical devices. During this session, we captured compelling evidence demonstrating how our cadaveric perfusion system accurately simulates aortic valve activation—a critical factor in testing device performance and reliability against real physiological conditions. A special thank you to NAMSA in Minneapolis for their invaluable collaboration. Together, we captured video footage of valve movements with our system, X-ray imagery of the aorta, and cardiac ultrasound images highlighting valve dynamics. These advanced simulations replicate first-in-human trial conditions, offering critical data for evaluating the performance and reliability of medical devices as they approach first-in-human trials. By providing lifelike, cadaveric models, we can accelerate R&D processes, enhance device optimization, and streamline the transition to clinical trials, ultimately driving faster advancements in medical technology. These innovations are crucial for advancing medical technology and improving patient outcomes. We look forward to more groundbreaking developments and successful partnerships ahead!

Ophthopedia Update:The Unfolding Story of Private Equity in Ophthalmology: Over the past decade, private equity (PE) has disrupted the classic private practice ownership model in ophthalmology by acquiring and consolidating practices across our specialty. Support for and against the sale of private physician groups to larger, privately held management groups has been hotly debated. As time passes, data are emerging on the impact these sales have had on the productivity, practice patterns, revenue generation, and physician satisfaction of the original physician groups. In this issue, Singh et al1 (see page 150) describe the changes that occurred after PE buyout of 4 retina services: commonly injected anti–vascular endothelial growth factor agents (bevacizumab, aflibercept, and ranibizumab), retina procedures, diagnostic imaging, and evaluation and management visits. #Ophthalmology #ophthotwitter #eyecare

The system consists of a specialized #colonoscope equipped with #laser technology and accompanying #software. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗘 𝗘𝗬𝗘 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸? ◉ 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: When using the system, #endoscopists can overlay a linear or circular measurement scale onto the area of interest. This scale appears directly on the monitor, allowing precise estimation of the size of #colorectal lesions and meaning endoscopists no longer need to rely solely on visual estimations or additional #surgical instruments. ◉ 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: To measure an object or #polyp, endoscopists position a laser beam to the left edge of the target. The laser’s position adjusts dynamically based on the distance between the object and the endoscope’s tip which ensures accurate measurements without the need for physical forceps or rulers. 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗘 𝗘𝗬𝗘 ◉ 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘆: The system boasts an impressive accuracy rate of 98.2%, significantly improving measurement precision. ◉ 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆: Measurement time is reduced to just 2.8 seconds, streamlining the procedure and saving valuable time. ◉ 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: It is particularly useful for assessing #colorectal lesions, aiding in diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up evaluations. Availability and Future Impact: Following the #FDAclearance, SCALE EYE is expected to be available later in 2024. #endoscopy #medicaldevices #medtech #healthtech #imaging #colorectalcancer #colonoscopy #cancerscreening #cancerdetection #crc #gi #gastrointestinal #gastroenterology #executivesearch #recruitment To learn more, check out the press release below: https://lnkd.in/eNrmHWkt
