Novuson's unique approach to surgical hemostasis and tissue division is unparalleled in its safety, precision, and broad applicability. Unlike traditional energy surgical devices, our products allow for precise surgical margins and minimal lateral thermal spread. Our solutions address real challenges that surgeons experience including those created by tissue charring and smoking. While this technology is perfect for laparoscopic or open cases, through the utilization of ultrasound instead of electrocautery or mechanical vibration, our instruments will be compatible with surgical robotic platforms as well.

Stuart Mitchell, Novuson President and CEO, states "We are very excited to welcome Dr. Gatta to our Medical Advisory Board. Not only will he bring his knowledge and insight to our development team on the clinical needs and usability, he will be a key resource for feedback on the problems with today's current technology and he will validate the need for Novuson technology."
