Method of Size Measurement in Mono-vision Scope Images

Unmet NeedKidney stone disease affects up to 1 in 8 people (12%) worldwide and is commonly treated by a procedure known as flexible ureteroscopy (URS). During URS, kidney stones are fragmented and extracted through the ureter. URS involves significant intra-operative decision making since surgeons must accurately assess the size of the stone fragments...

Vertebral Body Manipulation Device and Methods

Unmet NeedSpinal deformity occurs frequently and may affect up to 68% of the elderly population. Left untreated, these deformities may develop into spondylolisthesis, a spinal misalignment caused by a stress fracture in the vertebra and displacement of the vertebra from its original location. Spondylolisthesis occurs in about 5.8% of men and 9.1% of...

Device and Methods for Transrectal Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy

Unmet NeedProstate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous malignancy. Additionally, it is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths among men in the United States with nearly 1 in every 6 men predicted to be diagnosed with the disease at some point in their lives. Currently, the most common biopsy method is a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided...

Liquid Biopsy Method and Device

Unmet NeedCirculating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that have left the primary tumor and are carried around the body in circulation. Because their numbers are small, they are not easily detected. Through CTC capture, valuable information can be uncovered regarding a tumor’s link to cancer diagnosis or treatment. One method of detecting CTCs is...

Remote Center of Motion Robot

Unmet NeedImage-guided interventions (IGI) may be performed based on pre-acquired images, but using the imager at the time of the intervention to directly guide the procedure improves accuracy. Compatibility of robotic devices with the imaging has been a challenging engineering task, especially with magnetic resonance (MR) environment. Technology OverviewThis...

Geometric Biopsy Plan Optimization

Unmet NeedAn estimated 233,00 new cases of prostate cancer were diagnosed in the US alone. Studies have shown it is necessary to treat many men to prevent one death from prostate cancer. However, the current method of biopsy often misses relevant tumors. Accordingly, there is a need for more specific prostate screening test and more reliable prostate...

VERTEBRAL OSTEOTOMY SAW GUIDE

Unmet need: En bloc resections of tumors in the spine require multiple osteotomies to free the specimen from the spinal column. Osteotomies through a vertebral segment can be performed in many different ways, such as using osteotomes, drills, reciprocating saws, and wire saws. Yet, existing techniques are prone to unintentional cutting of adjacent critical...
