The Longevity Centers of America in West Palm Beach, Fla., has introduced NanoScope needle arthroscopy to expand its orthopedic and regenerative medicine services.
The minimally invasive system uses a needle-sized camera to provide real-time, in-joint visualization without surgical incisions or general anesthesia. It allows for same-day diagnosis and, in some cases, treatment of joint conditions in an outpatient setting, according to a Jan. 29 news release.
The technology offers an alternative to MRI and ultrasound by enabling direct assessment of cartilage, synovial tissue and other structures. It is used across multiple joints, including the knee, shoulder, wrist, ankle and elbow.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
