Viseon today announced plans to expand its market reach to outpatient surgery centers to move beyond minimally invasive spine surgery.
The Irvine, California-based company develops a single-use, 4K visualization system that serves as an alternative to more costly equipment like surgical microscopes, endoscopes and exoscopes. Viseon said that the technology makes high-quality visualization more accessible to surgeons.
“After initially cutting our teeth in minimally invasive spine surgery, we are now expanding the clinical applications for our enabling technology, a 4K advanced digital visualization (4K-ADV) company, with clinical and economic utility across several surgical areas of opportunity,” CEO Jeffrey Valko said in a news release. “We have demonstrated over 30% sales growth YTD 2023 over YTD 2022, as our surgeon users have consistently cost-justified their adoption of this enabling technology across multiple procedure types. Our surgeon users have demonstrated patient safety, operating room workflow efficiency, enhanced safety in teaching as well as surgeon ergonomic benefits from Viseon MaxView use, in both in-hospital and ASC settings.”
Intraoperative visualization has been used in neuro-navigation and augmented reality, most often based upon CT or MRI imaging modalities, according to the company. Viseon’s digital platform has real-time, highly magnified visualization of critical surgical anatomy that can be projected onto the operating room flat panel monitor for the entire operating staff to view.
Viseon’s technology also allows for 4K digital recording of the procedure for future reference, training, education and connection for a library of digital content to enhance machine learning and artificial intelligence processing.
