Medispec's Cardiospec - Optimal Cardiac Revascularization System
Medispec's innovative cardiac shockwave system, the CARDIOSPEC, uses Extracorporeal Shockwave Myocardial Revascularization (ESMR) technology for the treatment of patients with advanced Ischemic Heart Disease.
The Cardiospec is an advanced, unique echo-based shockwave therapy device for non-invasive cardiac revascularization. Low intensity, focused Shockwaves have been found to stimulate local, precise and controlled angiogenesis at ischemic areas no longer treatable by conventional invasive methods.
It offers the echocardiography department an opportunity to take an active role not only in the diagnosis portion of treatment but also as a valid treatment option for CAD patients.
Clinical results show a significant improvement in CCS class, Exercise Tolerance, increase in myocardial perfusion and obviously improvement in myocardial contractility.
ESMR is Safe, showing no arrhythmias, no cardiac enzyme rise and no reported device related side effects.
ESMR using the Cardiospec system is an ideal alternative complementing standard treatment procedures currently used for revascularization.

VentriPoint has created a diagnostic ultrasound tool to monitor patients with heart disease, a leading cause of death in developed countries. The VMS™ is the first cost-effective and accurate diagnostic tool for measuring right ventricle heart function. Congenital heart disease is the first application in a suite of applications for all major heart diseases including pulmonary hypertension, cardiovascular disease and heart failure - a multibillion-dollar market potential. Canada and Europe (CE Mark) have granted approval for the sale of VentriPoint’s VMS™ heart analysis system and VentriPoint is pursuing the US-FDA approval through the 510(k) process.
The Ventripoint Medical System (VMS) provides a unique solution for visualizing the right ventricle in 3D.
