Mauna Kea announced in a May 24 press release that it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Celivizio 100 series F400 and F800 with new Confocal Miniprobe, the CranioFlex. The clearance allows the device to be used during neurosurgical procedures. The Cellvizio 100 with CranioFlex gives allows for imaging of tissue internal microstructures and allows for identification of cells and vessels and their organization in the central nervous system during cranial diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The F400 series operates at 488 nm and the F800 model operates at 800 nm.

Bonesupport has signed a strategic agreement with Collagen Matrix to expand its product offering to the U.S., according to a May 24 press release. The agreement states that Bonesupport will start selling and marketing some of the Collagen Matrix bone graft substitute products under its own brand and through its own distribution network in the fourth quarter of this year.

3. Implanet launches Jazz Evo spine implant
