Acclarent's new technologies improve visualization during sinus surgery

Acclarent, Inc., a leader in minimally-invasive sinus surgery, today announced the introduction of two new technologies designed to improve visualization during sinus surgery -- The Acclarent Cyclops™ Multi-Angle Endoscope and the Relieva Luma Sentry™ Sinus Illumination System.  The Relieva Luma Sentry™ Sinus Illumination System builds upon Acclarent's 510k cleared Relieva Luma® Technology.  The Acclarent Cyclops™ Multi-Angle Endoscope is CE Marked and currently pending 510k clearance.  These products, which are the latest additions to the company's minimally-invasive Balloon Sinuplasty™ Technology Platform, will be featured at the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Otolaryngology -- Head and Neck Surgery, September 26-29 in Boston.

The Acclarent Cyclops™ Multi-Angle Endoscope offers an unlimited field of vision to examine every angle with one scope.  The Acclarent Cyclops™ Multi-Angle Endoscope's precise engineering and optically-ground, hand-polished sapphire lens enable the surgeon to pan up to 90-degrees and freely rotate the field of view. This allows the surgeon to directly visualize the natural opening of the sinuses, even the maxillary.

The Relieva Luma Sentry™ Sinus Illumination System safely navigates tortuous sinus anatomy and easily confirms sinus access. The Relieva Luma Sentry™ Sinus Illumination System also enables ENT surgeons to efficiently exchange instruments without losing sinus access.  Relieva Luma Sentry™ Sinus Illumination System is the next generation in transcutaneous illumination providing surgeons with confident direct visual confirmation of sinus access with maximum control.
