Executive Summary
Blood is not only thicker than water, it is a great deal more opaque, a property that makes it difficult for interventional cardiologists to navigate accurately in and around the heart to repair defects and place devices. Now Cardio-optics Inc. hopes to give surgeons a tool that helps them see directly forward through blood in real-time, to help them accurately perform a large variety of therapeutic and diagnostic procedures in blood-filled environs.
