Ascension's miniaturized sensors enable over 60 medical procedures in 12 specialties. Ranging in size from 0.38 mm — 8 mm in diameter, sensors unobtrusively fit into tips, channels and compartments of medical instruments. From there, they instantly track the instrument's trajectory and location. In conjunction with imaging devices and visualization software, they navigate instruments through soft tissue to deep-seated lesions without x-ray radiation of line-of-light limitations.

Here is a sampling of how medical devices companies are taking advantage of Ascension sensors in image-guidance to transform medicine and improve patient outcomes.
