Emet Surgical’s TrueMargin™, currently awaiting U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance, is an easy-to-use tumor margin-marking system that requires no new tools and no new training for surgeons, and can be simply added to surgical and pathology workflows. TrueMargin provides specific in-vivo and ex-vivo location and orientation details, unlike conventional tumor marking that is often incomplete and results in the need for follow-up surgeries. Healthcare organizations and teams can achieve measurable productivity improvements and cost savings with TrueMargin.
Emet Surgical has opened a StartEngine share offering that will help the company reach its goal of enhancing cancer patient surgery outcomes while providing improved ROI for healthcare providers and insurers. Participants in the StartEngine campaign will be among the first investors of a pioneering medical technology company that is part of an estimated $536.12 billion global medical device market.
