Problem
Current surgical visualization techniques often lack the resolution and real-time feedback needed to clearly differentiate between tissue types, especially in well-lit operating room environments. This can lead to imprecise resections, increased risk of damaging critical structures, and prolonged surgical times.
Solution
OnLume Surgical provides a fluorescence image-guided surgery (FIGS) system that enables surgeons to visualize subsurface structures with high resolution in normal operating room lighting conditions. The system uses a novel imaging approach to enhance surgical precision by providing real-time visualization of tissue characteristics that are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. The ergonomic design of the imaging head and monitors allows for customized deployment, streamlining surgical workflows based on individual surgeon preferences and operating room dynamics.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes surgeons across various specialties who require enhanced visualization for precise tissue differentiation and improved surgical outcomes.
Features
- High-sensitivity imaging system optimized for use in well-lit operating rooms
- Real-time visualization of subsurface structures and tissue differentiation
- Articulating imaging head and monitors for flexible positioning and ergonomic comfort
- Customizable deployment options to accommodate individual surgeon preferences and OR layouts
