Optim has introduced a new mobile Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) system for ENT and speech pathology clinicians.

The system, which allows clinicians to set-up portable or office based FEES programs within the practice, features a portable flexible endoscope, video camera, FDA cleared software, and related accessories all within a portable case.

Optim CEO Jeff Barrett said the company has launched Mobile FEES for its customers, who have expressed interest in expanding into FEES diagnostics.

"Our goal is to provide a complete turnkey product including our portable flexible nasopharyngoscope, proprietary camera software, clinical training, and warrantee and support," Barrett added.

To support the sales and training, Optim partnered with SEC Medical, which deals in medical speech pathology, education, training, and business practices.
