Globus Medical has acquired Synaptive Medical, expanding its portfolio of technologies used in cranial neurosurgery.

The deal closed Aug. 4 through a court-appointed receivership process, according to a Nov. 3 news release. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Synaptive develops technologies for complex cranial procedures, including surgical visualization, navigation, surgical planning and MRI.

Globus Medical’s immediate priority is continuity for Synaptive customers. The company has begun outreach to customers and stakeholders and is establishing service and support for the installed base while it finalizes its long-term commercial strategy for the business.

Globus Medical said the deal creates opportunities to develop integrated procedural solutions that combine Synaptive’s visualization, navigation and planning technologies with its Excelsius ecosystem of enabling technologies.

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.
