Overview

Visualize and assess tissue perfusion — in real time([FOOTNOTE=Bigdeli AK, Gazyakan E, Schmidt VJ, Hernekamp FJ, Harhaus L, Henzler T. Indocyanine green fluorescence for free-flap perfusion imaging revisited: advanced decision making by virtual perfusion reality in Visionsense™ fusion imaging angiography. Surg Innov. 2016;23(3):249–260.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),([FOOTNOTE=VS3 Iridium system [user’s guide]. Petach Tikva, Israel: Medtronic; 2016.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])

The EleVision™ IR platform brings high-definition visualization together with fluorescence imaging. So surgeons can see more — and know more. It’s the only visualization system capable of real-time fluorescence signal intensity measurements in both open and laparoscopic procedures.2,†

IR fluorescence imaging has demonstrated positive outcomes in plastic, reconstructive, and minimally invasive sugeries.([FOOTNOTE=Jafari MD, Wexner SD, Martz JE, et al. Perfusion assessment in laparoscopic left-sided/anterior resection (PILLAR II): a multi-institutional study. J Am Coll Surg. 2015;220(1):82–92.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),([FOOTNOTE=Duggal CS, Madni T, Losken A. An outcome analysis of intraoperative angiography for postmastectomy breast reconstruction. Aesthet Surg J. 2014;34(1):61–65.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])

Features

Designed for the OR

  • Control from the sterile field2
  • Multiple viewing options on touchscreen monitor2
  • Automatic processing based on distance from tissue2
  • OR lights can stay on2 — allowing continuous visibility of the operative field1
  • Automatic HD video recording2

Compact

  • Small footprint makes it easy to move around the OR
  • Can be used for both open and laparoscopic procedures (both white light and fluorescence imaging for a complete surgical procedure)2

High quality image2

  • Lightweight open camera for handheld or articulating arm use2
  • HD for both fluorescence and visible white light imaging2
  • Real-time overlay of IR fluorescence and visible light images2
  • Qualitative and quantitative measurement of IR intensity2
  • Option to export images to external monitor or hard drive2

Technology

See More. Know More.

The EleVision™ IR platform:

  • Uses an innovative laser technology in conjunction with indocyanine green (ICG) for high-definition imaging1,2
  • Produces simultaneous white light and infrared (IR) fluorescence images — and merges the two in real time([FOOTNOTE=DSouza AV, Lin H, Henderson ER, Samkoe KS, Pogue BW. Review of fluorescence guided surgery systems: identification of key performance capabilities beyond indocyanine green imaging. J of Biomed Opt. 2016;21(8):080901.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])
  • Provides real-time qualitative and quantitative measurement of IR signal intensity1,2
  • Creates a uniform edge-to-edge illumination pattern in open procedures, resulting in sharp peripheral image and reliable measurements2
