Rebound’s devices will facilitate minimally invasive access, via optics and illumination, for visualisation, diagnostic and therapeutic use in neurosurgery.
The minimally invasive surgical (MIS) technology of the company features integrated optics and illumination, which can interface with existing operating room monitors.
Rebound has developed Aurora surgiscope system and Aurora Evacuator for a variety of minimally invasive neurosurgical uses.
Rebound Therapeutics CEO Jeff Valko said: “Integra has a strong track record of commercializing technologies and working with surgeons to advance surgical care.
“Through its global neurosurgical sales team, we are looking forward to providing both surgeons and patients with greater access to our products.”
