Switzerland-based Icotec received FDA clearance to expand use of its CMORE CT system in the cervicothoracic region.
The system includes polyaxial screws, rods and connectors designed for posterior stabilization of the upper spine. The implant is made from the company’s radiolucent, nonmetallic BlackArmor material and supports artifact-free imaging across MRI, CT and X-ray, according to a Nov. 13 system news release.
The system is intended to support treatment of spinal tumors, infections and complex cervical pathologies, and will soon launch in the U.S., according to the release.
