Implant for identifying sites of seizure onset in the brain
Unmet Need In the United States, epilepsy affects 2.2 million people with 150,000 new cases each year. Between 14.6% and 36.3% of people who suffer from epilepsy have forms of epilepsy that are not controllable…
Augmented Reality for Neurosurgery
Unmet Need Approximately 30% of the 3.5 million epilepsy patients in the United States struggle to control seizures despite receiving existing treatments. These patients often undergo neurosurgery to help alleviate their symptoms. Surgical planning involves…
Surgical device to insert graft between skull and dura
Unmet Need About 16,000 patients per year are diagnosed with a mastoid space defect. This is a defect in the skull that leads to hearing loss caused by cerebrospinal fluid leaking into the mastoid space,…
Feature-Guided Image Fusion of Intrasurgical Optical Coherence Tomography and Digital Surgical Microscopy
Unmet Need Eye surgery is a high-impact intervention necessary to preserve the sight of thousands of patients, with retinal detachment surgeries alone constituting approximately 28,000 cases per year in the United States alone. Microscope-integrated optical…
Laser surgery targeting and guidance system
Unmet Need Lasers are frequently used in surgery, particularly in dermatology and oncology, to excise harmful tissue from the body. However, due to the difficulties in guiding laser surgical instruments, these tools may fail to…
Biomaterial pouch for long-term xenogeneic cell transplantation
Unmet Need Cell therapy is an exciting therapeutic approach that is growing rapidly – there are more than 1,000 cell therapy clinical trials that are currently active in many different fields like oncology, neurology, hematology,…
Aptamer anticoagulant therapy to reduce complications of ECMO treatment
Unmet Need Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving treatment for critically ill patients with low oxygen levels. During ECMO, the patient’s blood flows through an external oxygenation device. This requires co-treatment with an anticoagulant…
Adjustable tubular retractor for brain surgery
Unmet Need In 2018 the Journal of Neurosurgery estimated that there were 22.6 million patients globally suffering from neurological disorders, with 13.8 million of them requiring surgery. During intracranial operations concerning aneurysms, tumor extractions, and…
Memory-efficient deep learning algorithms for computed tomography image reconstruction
Unmet Need Using high resolution images such as computed tomography (CT) has become a popular tool to guide medical interventions from radiotherapy to dental implantation. The market for CT services is expected to grow from…
Secure cannula design to prevent improper infusion during vitreoretinal surgery
Unmet Need Around 250,000 vitrectomies are performed in the U.S. every year to treat pathology ranging from retinal detachment to vitreous hemorrhage epiretinal membrane. The ophthalmic surgical supply market recently topped half a billion dollars…
An accessory that reduces ergonomic burden on interventional cardiologists during left-sided vascular access
Unmet Need A recent study showed that over 40% of interventional cardiologists report spine problems. Currently, catheterization labs are set up so that an operator performing the catheterization is positioned on the right side of…
A system for securing intraocular lenses during cataract surgery and other applications where sutures create challenges
Unmet Need Suturing is a common method to close wounds and fixate devices. However, due to the inherent physical constraints of the intraocular cavity, forming knots within the eye to affix hardware or repair damaged…
