We believe the next-generation Novasight Hybrid™ system is well positioned to become a category leader and help propel the Ontario ecosystem.” “Ontario’s Life Sciences Scale-Up Fund is accelerating the development of next-generation health technologies and reinforcing our province’s position as a global leader in life science innovation,” said Vic Fedeli, Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade. “Through this partnership, Conavi Medical will advance the design and manufacturing of their cardiovascular imaging technology, ensuring more medical breakthroughs are developed right here, in Ontario.” Conavi’s proprietary Novasight Hybrid™ system uniquely combines both intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) into a single integrated system.
