Very proud of my research team for tackling the interesting topic of whether it is more dangerous to have concomitant sinus and rhinoplasty surgery. Using big-data analytics, we found that the risks are not synergistic but rather additive. One slightly higher risk identified was that of infection when using grafts like rib or ear, which aligns with the contamination from infected sinuses. If you are a surgeon, you may find this research intriguing—and I'd love to hear your thoughts! #bigdata #rhinoplastyresearch

Sydnexis was thrilled to be a part of the American-European Congress of Ophthalmic Surgery (AECOS) meeting. President Patrick Johnson educated on the progress that Sydnexis is making in creating a new treatment paradigm in the fight against myopia progression in children.   #aecos #sydnexis #optometry #optometrist #ophthalmology #ophthalmologist #myopia #myopiamanagement #myopiacontrol

Come see how how Snapshot provides actionable clinical data to better assess and manage vascular patients.

One challenge in the surgical management of #breastcancer is maximizing the preservation of healthy tissue while achieving acceptable negative margins. This paper reports on the intraoperative use of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in 3 patients with DCIS. In all 3 cases, additional lesions identified by OCT during surgery were also noted in histopathology reports 3 to 5 days post-surgery, suggesting that intraoperative use of OCT is a valuable tool for margin assessment in real-time. #medtech #medicalimaging

Compared with those who receive surgery, patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who receive anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections experience superior safety outcomes and similar visual acuity (VA) outcomes as treatment for AMD-related submacular hemorrhage (SMH), research in Ophthalmology Retina (American Academy of Ophthalmology) suggests. However, surgery may be better suited for extensive hemorrhage, according to the report.
