Malakoff – July 15th, 2015 – THERACLION (Alternext, FR0010120402 – ALTHE), a company specialized in leading-edge medical equipment for echotherapy, today announced that it has initiated a clinical trial intended to validate the performance of its new Echopulse® procedure. The proprietary technology enables significantly faster treatment delivery.
The trial was launched on June 18th and nine patients have been enrolled to date. Both thyroid nodules and breast fibroadenoma have been treated and as expected, workflow has been accelerated three-fold. "These first treatments with the new procedure have been very promising as they were not only faster but were also a much more pleasant experience for both the patient and the physician," said Professor Roussanka Kovatcheva of the University Hospital of Endocrinology of Sofia, Bulgaria.
"The start of this new trial demonstrates Theraclion's commitment to developing breakthrough treatment solutions. It is also based upon the company's strong intellectual property," added Sylvain Yon, deputy CEO and VP for R&D of Theraclion.
"Treatment acceleration has been a major angle of our product development strategy. In-time delivery of the announced milestones is a firm commitment to our customers and shareholders. We aim to develop HIFU (high intensity focused ultrasound) thermal ablation systems that perform at a level that is unmatched in the industry. This technology will significantly increase our physician adoption rate around the world," said David Caumartin, CEO of Theraclion.
