Elucent Medical

Elucent Medical has designed the EnVisio™ Navigation System; a novel device that utilizes an innovative electromagnetic field and SmartClip™ to enable precise stereotactic navigation within a wide field of view to a target of interest. The integration of the navigation tool onto the electrocautery device provides real-time guidance in the surgical field to deliver visual and audible indicators that provide Depth, Distance, and Direction to the SmartClip. This integrated system enables increased speed because of the ability to have the EM pad providing localization of SmartClips, in addition to the Real-Time 

Navigation is within the surgeon’s hand. The guidance and localization update as the tissue is manipulated during the surgery.  The generation of an unprecedentedly large field of the electromagnetic field for navigation, the EnVisio System, and SmartClip technology broaden the treatable patient population expanding SmartClip localization from the breast, and lymph nodes to the head and neck, abdominal soft tissue as well as the lung in the future. Elucent Medical is founded on the continued collaboration of multi-disciplinary physicians who seek to improve patient outcomes. The EnVisio Navigation system addresses the clinical need to meet the broadest patient demographics from simple (single site) to complex (several sites in the breast and axilla) cases allowing individualized treatment.
