PROJECT
Customized Cystoscope for Urological Probe
CHALLENGE
Animal Research Studies were planned requiring a prototype cystoscope that integrated with an optical probe.
ACCELERATE
A cystoscope was designed from a hybridization of custom parts coupled to existing surgical tools to rapidly meet the schedule of the clinical trials.
RESULT
The Animal Lab was successfully carried out on schedule.
PROJECT
Interchangeable Endoscope Tool Receiver
CHALLENGE
Create interchange-able surgical tool system to reduce the time of surgical procedures.
ACCELERATE
A suite of surgical tools were designed and fabricated that could be interchanged into the same handle actuation device.
RESULT
A working prototype was delivered and a patent awarded.
PROJECT
Disposable Cutters for Endoscopic Catheter
CHALLENGE
New applications for an existing FDA cleared resection catheter would require new catheters to be developed.
ACCELERATE
Fabrication techniques for resection cutting tools require expensive capital primarily owned by large vendors with little interest in rapid prototyping. By pushing the boundaries of rapid prototyping, evaluations and rapid iterations were possible.
RESULT
Prototype testing revealed what geometries would be most successful much faster and cheaper than traditional fabrication methods.
PROJECT
Obturator Sheath
CHALLENGE
Clinical Trials for a new endoscopic tool required a new insertion method.
ACCELERATE
After evaluating existing obturators, a new design was developed and fabricated that accommodate the novel endoscope.
RESULT
Successful insertion and deployment of tools during Human Clinical Trials.
I am always impressed by the depth of knowledge Jason has about the larger process of developing a new product. As a medical doctor, I deeply value not only knowledge but the ability to communicate that knowledge in understandable terms. Jason went far beyond my expectations of Gathering resources in the Boston area and recognition of the best strategic partners for the Alzheimer’s eye-tracking device.
