Device And Method For The Preparation And Operation On Biological Specimen

Tech ID: 33890 / UC Case 2018-845-0

Brief Description

This device offers a non-invasive solution for treating nasal airway obstructions, significantly improving recovery time and patient outcomes.

Full Description

Researchers at UC Irvine developed a cutting-edge medical device equipped with a laser that can prepare and operate on biological specimens without damaging their surroundings. It can be used to heat, cool, vaporize, and stimulate cells, tissues, or bones, primarily as a less invasive alternative to septoplasty. This device enables precise manipulation of biological materials without the need for traditional surgical intervention.

Suggested uses

  • Treatment of nasal airway obstructions and deviated septum without invasive surgery. 
  • Application in other medical fields requiring manipulation of cells, tissues, and bones. 
  • Use in both clinical and surgical settings for a variety of procedures. 
  • Point-of-care operations, enhancing efficiency and patient comfort.

Advantages

  • Non-invasive treatment option, reducing the risk associated with surgeries. 
  • Significantly shorter recovery times, with patients noticing improvements within days. 
  • Eliminates the need for anesthesia and the complications of surgical procedures. 
  • Flexible application for various biological specimens beyond nasal obstructions.
