GLOW800 Fluorescence en Réalitée Augmentée

Product catalog summary

Introduction to GLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence:
GLOW800 is an advanced fluorescence technology designed for ARveo and M530 microscopes, enabling surgeons to observe cerebral anatomy in natural color with real-time vascular flow and full depth perception. This innovation allows for confident interventions during cerebrovascular procedures by providing a comprehensive view of blood flow and anatomy without interrupting the surgical workflow.

Key Features and Benefits:

Comprehensive Visualization: Combines naturally-colored anatomy with vascular flow and depth perception in a single view, eliminating the need for mental reconciliation of separate images.
Workflow Efficiency: Surgeons can view blood flow without pausing surgery, maintaining focus and efficiency during procedures such as AVM, aneurysm, bypass, or microvascular decompression.
Integration and Ease of Use: GLOW800 mode can be activated with one touch via handgrip or footswitch, fully integrated with ARveo or M530 microscopes.

Technical Specifications:

Fluorescence Excitation: 790 nm
Fluorescence Signal: 835 nm
Microscope Compatibility: Compatible with new and existing ARveo, M530 OH6, and M530 OHX microscopes.

Regulations and Standards:

Complies with Council Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices and IEC 60601 standards for medical electrical equipment and electromagnetic compatibility.
Leica Microsystems holds ISO 13485 certificates for quality management and assurance.

Technological Advancements:

GLOW AR Technology: Utilizes a multispectral imaging sensor and real-time algorithms to optimize spectral bands for natural coloring and accurate fluorescence representation.
Future-Proof Platform: The GLOW AR platform is designed to be upgradable, allowing integration of new imaging technologies as they become available.

Additional Features:

Recording and Display: Easy setup and recording capabilities for review and teaching, with options for 4K 3D monitor display.
3D Enhancement: Optional 3D display and recording enhance teaching programs, although GLOW800 is not available in 3D.

Conclusion:
GLOW800 AR fluorescence represents a significant advancement in surgical imaging technology, providing surgeons with enhanced visualization and workflow efficiency during complex cerebrovascular procedures. Its integration with existing microscope systems and compliance with international standards make it a valuable tool in modern neurosurgery.
