IOPS® ADVANTAGE
Time Reduction
A recent in vitro study found that, overall, the mean time necessary to cannulate a given vessel using 3D navigation was 53.4% of the time necessary using traditional 2D navigation, indicating a time savings of 46.6%
IOPS® ADVANTAGE
Improved Visualization Leads to Better Outcomes
Patient outcomes are improved as we reduce procedural times with better visualization, greater control, and real-time position navigation data.
IOPS® ADVANTAGE
Mitigate the Growing Risk of Radiation Exposure and Contrast Dye
As endovascular procedures become more complex, the risk of radiation exposure continues to increase.

IOPS Platform
IOPS, with the IOPS Viewpoint Catheter is an innovative, 3D GPS-like surgical navigation and visualization technology that is designed to improve endovascular procedure outcomes and mitigate radiation exposure.
“Compared to standard imaging, we cut the procedural time by more than half during a preclinical study. Especially in complex interventions, every minute counts, and this should translate to the ability to treat more patients at less cost, with a simultaneous increase in precision safety.”
