The AtriCure Ablation and Sensing Unit (ASU) is a device that makes linear and transmural lesions in a matter of seconds. The system can demonstrate when a transmural lesion has been formed by measuring the conductance of soft tissue, and it only takes a few seconds by using its patented method of targeting ablative energy.

The system has the ability to evaluate the conductance of tissue as it is being ablated. This is done 10 times per second — at the very moment that the lesion becomes transmural, or no longer able to conduct energy, the ASU gives a signal.

The Stereotaxis Navistar RMT Dual Sensor magnetically enabled 8mm ablation catheter has received FDA approval and will soon be commercially available in the U.S. The 8mm catheter expands electrophysiology applications for the Stereotaxis Magnetic Navigation system by providing physicians the ability to deliver high power ablations for the treatment of atrial arrhythmias.

Immersion Medical has updated its endovascular platform with features that allow it to simulate a wider range of procedures. The new platform, called the CathLabVR system, allows surgical simulation with as many as four devices or tools and for procedures involving more regions of the body.

In addition to coronary treatments, physicians use endovascular procedures to treat several other diseases, including peripheral arterial disease.

Onset Medical Corp.’s SoloPath transseptal access catheter utilizes Onset's Controlled Deployment Technology (CDT) to allow percutaneous access to the chambers of the left heart and surrounding vasculature.

Sentinel integrates the entire range of noninvasive diagnostic cardiology solutions including ECG Exercise Testing, 12-Lead ECG, Holter Monitoring, ECG Event Recording and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring into one central data management system.

The Infinix VF-i/SP X-ray system is a universal cardiovascular system designed to accommodate diagnostic and interventional procedures.

ViTALCardia includes a new EP planning tool and CathView, a new angiographic orientation.

In an effort to continue the successful launch of the s5i integrated IVUS system in the US and Europe, Volcano has announced full market release of the s5i Touchpad controller. This small but fully functional bedside touchpad allows physicians control of the Volcano IVUS system directly from the sterile field.

The Watchman device is designed to keep harmful sized blood clots that form in the left atrial appendage from entering the blood stream, potentially causing a stroke. The device is permanently placed just behind or at the opening of the left atrial appendage.

iASSIST is a Bluetooth-enabled remote control that provides seamless operation of Aplio XG from up to 30 feet away.
