Visionsense wins clearance for neurosurgery device

Visionsense has received FDA 510(k) clearance for the new VSII - Visionsense stereoscopic vision system for use in MIS neurosurgery.

The ‘Miniature Microscope’, a 3.4mm 3D camera is used in tran-nasal skull-base and other minimally invasive neurosurgical procedures, providing a local stereoscopic view of the anatomy. The company plans to launch the VSII system late 2008.

Avi Yaron, CEO of Visionsense, said: “This system provides a revolutionary approach to Neurosurgery, allowing the surgeon a stereoscopic operating microscope view in endoscopic sizes, benefiting patients by converting craniotomies to minimal invasive surgery.”
