Conavi Medical (OTC: CNVIF) received strong validation from new U.S. intracoronary imaging guidelines issued by the American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association. The Class 1A guidelines, representing the highest level of evidence, emphasize the essential roles of both IVUS and OCT imaging in coronary procedures.
The guidelines specifically highlight how these imaging technologies are important for evaluating lesion preparation, stent sizing, reducing geographical errors, confirming stent expansion, identifying complications, and determining stent failure causes. Clinical data shows intracoronary imaging leads to a 46% reduction in cardiac death compared to angiography alone.
Conavi's Novasight system, as the only hybrid IVUS-OCT device in the market, uniquely positions the company by offering both imaging modalities in a single platform. This combination helps streamline procedures, limit contrast usage, and support more informed clinical decisions for complex coronary artery disease patients.
