NDS today announced it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for an embedded
wireless HD-video receiver to be integrated into an endoscopy display.
The ZeroWire® G2 wireless technology solution from NDS, also
available as an external unit, will now be design engineered into the
new Radiance® Ultra series of premium endoscopy displays as
an option within the display enclosure.
By embedding the wireless video receiver into the endoscopy display, NDS
has further streamlined the efficiency of the modern operating room
(OR), allowing for a reduction in the number of external medical devices
required during a surgical procedure, as well as a reduction in power
and video cables. The
Radiance
Ultra 27"
and 32" size formats will be the first displays
that NDS will offer with the new embedded wireless capability. The
Radiance Ultra series is designed with a splash-proof, edge-to-edge
glass front panel for easy cleaning.
"NDS medical innovations are inspired by the clinical needs of the
end-user, to provide real-world solutions that contribute to the
efficiency of the endoscopy team who are focused on the patient,"
said Darko Spoljaric, Vice President of Global Marketing at NDS.
"Embedding the ZeroWire G2 technology into the most advanced Radiance
Ultra endoscopy displays is another important leap forward in
streamlining the capabilities of the OR and Endo/GI procedure rooms."
ZeroWire
G2
technology delivers full 1080p HD video in real time with
unnoticeable video delay. Offering 2D and 3D video support, ZeroWire G2
is medical-grade certified to operate within the patient vicinity. An
advanced point-to-point tracking system keeps the transmitter and
receiver locked together, avoiding signal loss when one or both are
repositioned during a procedure.
