    About Stereotaxis



    Stereotaxis designs, manufactures and markets an advanced cardiology

instrument control system for use in a hospital's interventional surgical

suite to enhance the treatment of coronary artery disease and arrhythmias.

The Stereotaxis System is designed to enable physicians to complete more

complex interventional procedures by providing image guided delivery of

catheters and guidewires through the blood vessels and chambers of the

heart to treatment sites. This is achieved using computer-controlled,

externally applied magnetic fields that govern the motion of the working

tip of the catheter or guidewire, resulting in improved navigation, shorter

procedure time and reduced x-ray exposure. The core components of the

Stereotaxis system have received regulatory clearance in the U.S., Europe

and Canada.
