12.10.2018: Nordic feasibility study supports routine patient management using Blue Light Flexible Cystoscopy with Hexvix® in the outpatient setting

Positive results from a feasibility study investigating Hexvix® with flexible cystoscopy in the outpatient (office) setting have been published in Research and Reports in Urology https://bit.ly/2NBgyez . The investigators concluded that routine outpatient management of patients with Blue Light Cystoscopy (BLC™) with a flexible scope for early identification of recurrent lesions using on-site biopsy, is feasible in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). As a result, small tumors can be managed immediately with fulguration, avoiding the need for referral to the operating room for rigid cystoscopy and TURB under general anesthesia. Logistically, little training appears to be required for urologists and nurses, and, once healthcare professionals become familiar with the procedure, patient flow is smooth. Therefore, BLC with Hexvix using flexible scopes in the outpatient setting offers potential clinical, economic, and patient benefits in the follow-up of patients with NMIBC.

Ingen grunn til at Cysview ikke skal bli mye brukt i outpatient setting altså. Mangler bare mer fokus på First diagnosis nå så blir dette knallbra!

Det er sjelden man ser bruk av ropetegn i slike artikler, men her klarer de ikke å la være, med god grunn:
Blue light cystoscopy (Cysview) has been extensively studied to investigate improvement in detection of bladder tumors vs. white light cystoscopy. There have been six multi-center phase 3 trials in the US, Canada, and Europe analyzing its role. In a large study by Stenzl A. 5 in patients with Ta or T1 disease, 16% of Ta tumors, 13% of T1 tumors and 46% of carcinoma in-situ (CIS) was diagnosed with the use of blue light cystoscopy only!

Is multi spectral imaging a rival technique?

18.10.2018: Georgia Urology Physicians Use Innovative Technology to Hunt Down and Treat Bladder Cancers

https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/georgia-urology-physicians-use-innovative-technology-to-hunt-down-and-treat-bladder-cancers-1027631577

Fra artikkelen:

"Blue Light Cystocopy with Cysview is a game changer," said Dr. Adam Mellis of Georgia Urology. "It is rapidly becoming the standard of care for patients with bladder tumors."

"I am such an advocate for it because it provides so many benefits for my patients," Dr. Mellis explained. "It has the potential to catch cancers that may have been missed otherwise using standard white-light cystoscopy. This, in turn, may lead to better outcomes for patients."

Følgende kan kanskje tolkes som om Georgia Urology har behov for flere blålys enheter fremover...?!?
"Georgia Urology is the largest urology practice in Atlanta and throughout the Southeast. Georgia Urology has more than 30 locations and six ambulatory surgery centers."

Dyma: Knallbra! Dette underbygger veldig tydelig det som selskapet mener med akselererende vekst.
