Medical Navigation and Balloon Catheter

[INQ. NO. 1802E09] Established in 1995, Mega Medical Co., Ltd. has recently developed medical navigation for the first time in Korea and a balloon catheter for interlocking with this navigation. The medical navigation is a cutting-edge medical device that provides detailed information on parts of the body where an endoscope cannot reach, which promotes safe surgeries.
Naviloon, the balloon catheter, for interlocking with the navigation, is also a useful device in many fields. Namely, it is an expendable product effective for medical purposes such as paranasal sinus balloon dilatation. A sensor is integrated in the interior of the balloon catheter to confirm an exact location with the navigation, which promotes more convenient and safer surgeries. Based on the requests of surgeons, its design has been improved to reduce fatigue during surgeries. An LED-type balloon catheter that enables diaphanoscopic surgeries in a form of transillumination and a balloon catheter for transfer purposes are now under development.

The patented navigation and balloon catheter have gone through GMP tests and been approved for manufacturing by KFDA. Mega Medical Co., Ltd. is expected to contribute to the rising status of Korea as a world-class medical device manufacturing country by taking the localization of the navigation and balloon catheter as the second take-off platform.
As a venture company, Mega Medical Co., Ltd. is specialized in medical devices. Having started with the successful localization of an E.N.T. unit at the beginning of its establishment, it has been able to develop full-HD imaging systems and breathing treatment devices with continuous R&D on medical devices.

Pico-toning Laser System

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry[INQ. NO. 1802E08] POICOCARE450, which is based on WonTech’s picosecond, is the first 450ps system in the nation with the approval of the Korea Food and Drug Administration.
POICOCARE450, a system specialized for pico-toning, can effectively remove the pigment legions including tattoos, dark spots, freckles, moles, and blemishes. In the case of tattoo removal treatment, POICOCARE450 can satisfactorily remove a multi-colored tattoo, which could not be easily done before, with just 2~3 sessions of treatments. For example, in the case of a freckle, three POICOCARE treatments can produce a similar result as six treatments of nano laser toning treatments. Before the system is used, Wontech confirms the pulse of Oscilloscope Pro 450 Picosecond that can ensure the pulse duration. The durability and safety of the system can be confirmed during the long demonstration period. The beam is soft on the skin without the short burning that the Q-switched Nano Laser would give, so the treatment can be conducted on sensitive and susceptible patients. It gives less discomfort to some patients thanks to less pain/burning sensations than the conventional nano laser. Currently, ‘POICOCARE450’ offers basically 1064nm, 532nm wavelengths, and a 595nm/660nm Dye hand-piece is added. When needed, an optional hand-piece can be used for various red/pigmented legions. Additional use of a Focused Fractional Laser will be effective for scars, lifting, and elasticity. ‘POICOCARE450,’ which can be variously utilized, will give much satisfaction to patients since it causes less pain and requires fewer effective treatment sessions.

 

How to Maximize Treatment Effect of POICOCARE450

When the strong 1064nm, 532nm treatment is done, it is essential to use a regenerative cream, and a sun block lotion should be generously applied. A prescription whitening cream can be prescribed, or a steroid cream can also be applied when the treatment is overdone.

Established in 1999, Wontech is a global medical device manufacturer specializing in R&D, production, and sales of lasers, ultrasounds, and high-frequency medical devices, which are based on its superior knowledge. Listed on KONEX in 2015, its sales and business profits increased to a great extent, and Wontech won the ‘Korea KONEX Award’ in May 2016. Its R&D employees comprise 50% of the entire workforce, and Wontech owns more than 170 cases of intellectual property rights. Its major product, POICOCARE450 is a cutting-edge laser, which is very effective in removing skin pigmentations like tattoos, freckles, dark spots, and moles. POICOCARE450 has competitive functions when compared with top global brands, so it gets huge support domestically and globally. Hairbeam, Wontech’s B2C product, is a personal hair-loss treatment device. It was first advertised in a home-shopping show and it ended tup being one of the company’s major products. Wontech is aiming to lead the home self-care market by launching Hairbeam in the Chinese market. In order to advance as a global anti-aging product company from the current medical laser specialty manufacturer, Wontech will reinforce its B2C business. In the long run, by developing laser systems related to the surgical field, ENT, urology, and neurological surgery, it will aim to become a global medical device manufacturer beyond being an aesthetic device company.

LG’s plans to inject record high US$5.6bn into R&D

LG Group plans to spend a record high amount on research and development (R&D) this year in order to develop new technologies that will help the conglomerate lead the market.

In 2015, the company group expanded its number of researchers and technical advisers (executive levels) to the highest level. It recently said that it will invest 6.3 trillion won ($5.6 billion) in R&D projects this year. This is the first time for the company group to put aside over six trillion won worth of annual R&D budget, equivalent to 39.4 percent of LG’s total investment for 2015 of 16 trillion won.

The allocation of the total investment on a group level also hit an all-time high. The group set aside 37.1 percent or 5.9 trillion won of the total 15.9 trillion won investment last year. Such ever-high aggressive investment on R&D will be focused on three major areas of electronics, chemicals and telecommunication, service. In particular, more than two-thirds of the entire investment or 4.2 trillion won will be used for the electronics area, which is scheduled to be carried out by LG Electronics and LG Display.

In the electronics sector, focus on technologies of next-generation mobile and display will be at the center of the investment. In the communications and services sector, the investment focus will be the 5G mobile communication network technology and big data processing technologies.

In addition to three areas of electronics, chemical and telecommunication, LG’s investment will also be created for R&D for technological development of new growth engines including the convergence industry.
