Medico’s Hirata announces the launch of “Fine025 flextype” (Trade name:ディスポーザブル内視鏡通電ダイレータ, Certification Number : 230ALBZX00020000).

Compared with conventional FINE025, more flexibility is added to a sheath, so device’s smooth crossability is expected even through tortuous portions of anatomy.

Medico’s Hirata announces the launch of Penumbra Inc. “Ruby GEN2 EMBOLIZATION SYSTEM”(Trade Name： Penumbra PC400 コイルシステム、Approval Number： 22400BZX00294000)

Ruby GEN2 coil is a large–volume coil with a primary diameter of 0.020 inch. A size range of up to 60cm in length and 40mm in diameter makes more choices available in various coil embolization . In addition, a flexible coil design achieves higher packing densities.

弊Medico’s Hirata announces the launch of “Fine025” (self-developed product; Trade name:ディスポーザブル内視鏡通電ダイレータ, Certification Number: 230ALBZX00020000).

The thinned distal end (1.0 mm) and appropriate stiffness of the sheath are expected to make it possible to smoothly pass across a stricture.

The tapered electrode aims at a reliable procedure while decreasing possible injury to the surrounding tissues.

Medico’s Hirata announces the launch of “DeFrictor®” (Trade Name: フローダイレクトマイクロカテーテル, Approval Number 22900BZX00258000).

DeFrictor Nano Catheter is designed with 1.3 Fr low profile distal shaft for use in small vessels. The braide (in the whole shaft) protects inner lumen integrity and provides high or excellent pushability across the peripheral vessels. These features permit approach to small vessels which were difficult to be accessed before and sharply angulated side branches.

Medico’s Hirata announces the addition of the “RINGLIGHT™ SLIM FIBER PROBE”, a thin laser fiber, to the lineup of LSO Medical’s “Endothermelaser™ 1470” (Trade Name：LSO1470レーザー, Approval Number：22700BZX00311000).

Endovenous laser ablation for which the Endothermelaser™ 1470 is intended to be used to treat varicose veins is a treatment to block the vein by omnidirectionally ablating the venous wall to shrink with a laser beam from the laser fiber inserted into the main trunk of the saphenous vein. It is a relatively new therapy approved to be reimbursed in 2011 in Japan, drawing attention these days as a minimally invasive procedure which allows varicose veins to be treated with a small incision.

This latest addition, the “RINGLIGHT™ SLIM FIBER PROBE”, is made thinner by approx. 2F than our conventional laser fiber, which is expected to make treatment even less invasive.

Medico’s Hirata announces the launch of Penumbra Inc. “Reperfusion Catheters (ACE68)” (Trade Name：Penumbra システム, Approval Number 22300BZX00269000).

Reperfusion Catheters (ACE68) realizes optimal trackability with unique coil structure and adapts to tortuous anatomies with flexible distal shaft.
