Product catalog summary
Introduction
VivoSight Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive, high-resolution imaging technology used to guide laser treatments for skin conditions. It enhances treatment precision and patient outcomes by providing detailed images of skin sub-structures and vascular networks.

Enhanced Treatment Capabilities
OCT allows for the assessment of unclear micro-anatomy and pathology, enabling more confident and assertive treatment protocols. It provides real-time, intraoperative diagnosis, offering more control and reducing the learning curve for laser therapy.

Elevated Patient Interaction
OCT serves as an effective communication tool between physicians and patients, documenting the therapy and healing process, and offering opportunities for practice differentiation.

Advanced Research Capacity
The technology supports new application development and the detection of skin changes, contributing to advanced research in dermatology.

Applications in Dermatology
OCT is used to assess skin structure and morphology, vascular networks, adnexal structures, and skin surface texture. It is particularly useful for fibrotic skin disorders, sub-surface anomalies, and pre-malignant lesions.

Precision Scanning for Personalized Treatment
VivoSight enables personalized treatments by uncovering individual skin and pathology variations. It supports data-driven therapy, allowing for precise treatment settings based on local skin characteristics.

Clinical Applications
OCT is used for deep fractional lower eyelid resurfacing, assessing vascular lesions, and guiding full-field deep ablation. It helps in matching treatment to the depth of scars and identifying safe and danger zones.

Practice Distinction and Revenue Opportunity
Integrating VivoSight into clinical practice enhances patient-physician communication and offers a business model where patients pay for premium treatments. It distinguishes practices in the local market.

Technical Specifications
The VivoSight OCT system features a wavelength of 1300 nm, swept-source FD-OCT type, with 2D or 3D scan modes. It offers high axial and lateral resolution, making it suitable for detailed skin imaging.

Conclusion
VivoSight OCT, combined with the JOULE platform, represents a new era in patient care, offering precise diagnostics and therapeutic capabilities. It solidifies Sciton's commitment to advancing skin treatment technologies.

Precision Scanning for Precision Treatment For enhanced personalized treatments, VivoSight uncovers strong individual skin and pathology variations Skin varies tremendously from patient to patient and site to site, even on the same patient. Added pathology exacerbates this situation. For specific cases, typically only routine laser parameters are often selected, whereas a more effective treatment may be possible. VivoSight enables new capabilities for patient assessment and information gathering, in order to intervene more effectively. Do you know where you are going without a map? For demanding...

More Value (continued) Clearing stubborn, residual vascular lesions Comprehensive vascular mapping as a factor in alternative treatment approaches. OCT characterized vascular lesions reveal different vascular patterns than originally thought. New information on size, depth and density lead to improved treatment outcomes. Vascular lesions can be resistant to laser treatments or require many repeats to clear. OCT images reveals vessel morphology that is highly variable from patient to patient in terms of vessel diameters and depths. OCT can be used to precisely measure vessels, enabling treatments...
