CVAC provides a precise and minimally invasive approach to kidney stone removal. Utilizing advanced suction and irrigation, this technology collects stone fragments during and after ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy, enabling virtually complete stone clearance while minimizing trauma to the ureters and kidney, thereby allowing patients to recover comfortably and quickly.
NanoKnife utilizes electrical pulses to target and destroy cancerous cells in the prostate, employing advanced technology known as electroporation. This minimally invasive option can treat some instances of low-grade prostate cancer while preserving surrounding healthy tissue, offering a promising option for men seeking treatment with fewer side effects.
Focal One HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) combines tried-and-true ultrasound energy and robotic guidance to deliver precise, non-invasive prostate cancer therapy. This targeted approach spares healthy tissue, allowing for effective treatment and improved quality of life.
PAE is a non-surgical, non-thermal treatment that shrinks the prostate by up to 40% and has no reports of sexual dysfunction or urinary incontinence. It achieves this by reducing the prostatic blood supply using tiny microspheres to block the prostatic arteries. It provides significant relief from urinary symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with minimal downtime and no incisions.
