The Intelliguide is an automated, high precision CO2 laser for use with OmniGuide’s breakthrough BeamPath® fibers, creating a solution that significantly improves precision, access and control in surgical cutting. OmniGuide leverages the benefits of CO2 laser, known to be one of the safest, most effective and most precise surgical cutting modalities available to improve minimally invasive surgical outcomes.
“We are fully committed to being a leader in minimally invasive laser surgery by delivering enhanced surgical solutions based on precision, access and control. We are excited about launching a product that delivers on all fronts. We are confident that the Intelliguide will help us expand our market presence in the fields of Gynecology, Otolaryngology and Neurosurgery,” states Scott Flora, President and CEO.
The system includes key features designed to provide a superior user experience to both surgeon and operating room staff. It eliminates the cumbersome set-up associated with traditional CO2 lasers, while the system’s small footprint and quiet operation allow it to be easily integrated into the operating room environment. Intuitive touchscreen controls for all laser functions improve ease of use and expedite the learning process for all users. Advanced functions, like customized surgeon settings and integrated cooling gas controls, simplify and shorten the set-up process in the O.R., ensuring consistent system performance.
The Intelliguide will be presented at the 2012 Combined Otolaryngological Spring Meetings in San Diego from April 19th to 21st. Join us at booth #107 for a hands-on demonstration of the new system and to discuss how OmniGuide can contribute to your practice.
