Lumenis Surgical out of Yokneam, Israel will be introducing the VersaPulse P20 holmium laser at the American Urological Association annual meeting that’s starting tomorrow in San Francisco. The system is best suited for treating kidney stones, but can be used for other applications where up to 20 watts of energy is sufficient.
From the press release:
Its compact desktop size features the same gold-standard 20 watt treatments, but now allows it to sit on a desktop or fit within existing video towers for increased mobility.
Lumenis’ VersaPulse P20 boasts the highest power in its class, flexible treatment settings and enhanced visibility.
The PolyScope is an evolutionary step in the advancement in flexible scope technology. The scope features a disposable catheter with a reusable 10,000 pixel fiber optic. This unique concept solves many of the current drawbacks encountered with the use of standard flexible scopes; including the high occurrence of breakage and cost of repair as well as recent contamination issues associated with scope sterilization.
