Biovision’s Next-Generation NeedleView Arthroscope Suite

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document introduces Biovision's NeedleView Arthroscope Suite, a micro-arthroscopy system for both equine/large animals and small/companion animals. It emphasizes the system's ability to perform standing/conscious diagnostic micro-arthroscopy, providing a minimally invasive and portable solution for veterinary diagnostics.
Key Benefits:
  • Ease of Use: The system is user-friendly, requiring knowledge of joint anatomy but not necessarily surgical expertise.
  • Minimally Invasive: The 1.2mm scope allows procedures with local sedation, eliminating the need for a surgery room.
  • Informative Diagnostics: Provides critical information for treatment decisions, especially in cases unresponsive to other therapies.
Suite Components:
  • High Resolution Camera: Features solid-state LED illumination for enhanced brightness.
  • NeedleView Arthroscopes: Includes two scopes with different working lengths and directional view options.
  • Stainless-Alloy Cannula/Obturator System: Offers improved leverage and compatibility with existing systems.
  • Digital Visualization Terminal: A touch-screen display with integrated media capture for storing high-resolution images and videos.
Research and Practice: Studies confirm the effectiveness of the NeedleView system in diagnosing joint issues in standing horses, with applications extending to other areas like the navicular bursa. The system is adopted by leading veterinary institutions globally.
Applications:
  • Equine/Large Animal: Used for diagnosing stifle diseases, meniscal tears, cartilage damage, and more, offering early detection and better outcomes.
  • Small/Companion Animal: Suitable for joint explorations and therapeutic agent delivery, with additional applications in rhinoscopy, urethroscopy, and more.
Financial Analysis: The document provides a return on investment (ROI) analysis for both large animal and small animal suites, highlighting the financial benefits of adopting the NeedleView system, including significant tax savings and high cash-on-cash returns.
Case Scenarios:
  • Diagnostic: A 5-year-old female canine with arthritis symptoms. X-ray and CT scans are inconclusive, suspecting a fragmented medial coronoid process.
  • Therapeutic: A 9-year-old male canine with lameness, joint issues, and pain. X-ray and arthrocentesis show degraded synovial fluid quality.
Financial Overview:
  • Small/Companion Animal sector shows a 198% Year One Cash-on-Cash Return.
  • Revenue from diagnostics ranges from $300-$500 per procedure, with additional income from post-treatment evaluations.
Technical Specifications:
  • Power Supply: AC In 100 - 240V, AC Out 19V, 65W.
  • Computing System: Intel Celeron Processor N2930, 4GB DDR3L RAM, MS W7 Embedded OS.
  • Storage: 64GB mSATA SSD, expandable to 128GB.
  • Display: 10.1” TFT LCD, 1280 x 800 resolution, multi-touch.
  • Connectivity: Micro HDMI, USB 3.0, USB 2.0.
  • Environmental Resistance: IP-65 water/dust resistance, operating temperature -10°C to +50°C.
  • Physical Characteristics: Dimensions 292 x 196 x 20mm, weight 1.1 kg, grey & green color.
  • Certifications: FCC Class B, CE, IEC/EN 60950-1, optional ANSI/ISA certification.

Biovision’s Next-Generation NeedleView Arthroscope Suite-2

Key Benefits • Easy to Learn – You don’t necessarily need to be a surgeon to be able to use the NeedleView Arthroscope Suite effectively. You do need to be comfortable with joint anatomy and know how to be in a joint without damaging cartilage; this can be taught in a wetlab or weekend workshop. But the actual technique is easily taught if you’re in joints frequently (for example, using PRP, stem cells, IRAP, or other therapeutic agents). • inimally Invasive – At 1.2mm, the NeedleView scope is the size of an 18-gauge needle. You can scope with just a local block M and sedation. If you don’t have...

Biovision’s Next-Generation NeedleView Arthroscope Suite-4

In a seminal peer-reviewed studyl published in 2014, researchers confirmed: • The 18-gauge NeedleView arthroscope can be used to perform complete diagnostic examination of the three compartments of the stifle joint in standing horses. • In areas of the joint where space was limited, the small diameter of the scope was an advantage despite the smaller field of view. One of the study's lead authors (David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, MS, DACVS, DACVSMR, Professor of Equine Surgery, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO) has successfully used the NeedleView arthroscope to diagnose injuries in more than...

Recognition of stifle disease appears to be increasing, and estimates put the incidence in some athletic disciplines as high as 40%4. While treatment options are expanding, definitive diagnosis of slight to moderate stifle pathology has long been limited, for a number of reasons: • Traditional diagnostic arthroscopy (using scopes from 2.7mm and up), while it allows for both diagnosis and therapy, requires general anesthesia, rehabilitation time, and significant cost.. .all of which factor in to difficulty securing owner/trainer buy-in. • Many practitioners are uncomfortable performing diagnostic anesthesia...

Biovision’s Next-Generation NeedleView Arthroscope Suite-6

Equine/Large Animal From David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, MS, DACVS, DACVSMR, pioneer of standing stifle needle arthroscopy: “Because of the NeedleView scope’s small size, we can ‘drive it around’ the stifle and image everything. No other technology gives us that ability. Traditional imaging modalities typically require transporting the animal and then putting it under general anesthesia and handling the subsequent recovery… all of which can be costly and may require significant lead time. The NeedleView Arthroscope Suite is so small and portable, we can perform diagnostic arthroscopy in our trailer...
