Is the Northern Netherlands becoming the new hotspot for medical innovation? The opportunities are abundant, and the iMPACT Implants project perfectly demonstrates what is possible when specialists join forces. The goal of this project? To develop personalized implants, tailored to the unique anatomy of each patient. By combining advanced 3D technology with patient-specific data, such as bite force and walking patterns, we make this possible. This is already being applied on a small scale. The next step is to further optimize it and roll it out on a larger scale. Together with partners like the UMCG, the ENTEG Institute of the University of Groningen, BAAT Medical, Bether Encapsulates, and PolyVation, we are working towards our ambition of making personalized implants the new standard. This project is made possible by a €3.7 million grant from the Just Transition Fund (JTF) to launch the iMPACT Implants program. The total project value amounts to €7.3 million.

Radically Rethinking Endoscopic Retraction - Introducing REVEEL Endoscopic Liver Retractor. Our latest addition to the Microline product portfolio. Strong - Highly robust, its strength derives from its integral stainless steal I-Beam and nickel titanium, super elastic arms. Design verification testing with 3 kg (6.6 lbs.) load. Excellent Visualization - Shaped for an unobstructed view, REVEEL offers exceptional exposure of the operating site and is optimized for large, fatty livers. The heart shape and rigid central i-beam enables the liver to be well-mobilized and prevents the left lobe from flopping into the field of view. Gentle - Surface with a Coefficient of Frictions (COF) 171% greater than traditional metallic retractors1 . Using REVEEL results in: less retraction force; reduced possibility of inadvertent crushing of the liver; less slippage; and less frustration for the surgeon. Interested in learning more?
