AngioDynamics Expands VenaCure EVLT System
August 30, 2010—AngioDynamics (Queensbury, NY) announced the launch of a new access kit for use with the company's VenaCure endovenous laser treatment (EVLT) system's NeverTouch gold-tipped laser fiber to treat varicose veins.
According to AngioDynamics, the new 0.018-inch system for the VenaCure EVLT access kit reduces the number of components involved in gaining access for the procedure. The kit provides a longer 0.018-inch nitinol long-access wire. The distal tip on the Trè-Sheath dilator is resized to accept a 0.018-inch nitinol access wire, eliminating the need for a microaccess sheath as well as the need to exchange wires during the procedure. This reduces the process from eight steps to four. The VenaCure EVLT system includes the Delta laser, a choice of procedure kits, procedure accessories, and a tumescent delivery system. The NeverTouch gold-tipped laser fiber enhances patient comfort, visibility, and ease of use, the company stated.
