Visualase, Inc. founded in 2005 as a spin-off from BioTex, Inc., is focused on laser and image-guided technologies for thermal ablation. They developed the Visualase Laser Thermal Tumor Ablation System referred to as "Visualase" in which energy is delivered to the tumor using a laser probe that is inserted directly into the tumor. Light is delivered through the probe heating and destroying the tumor. This technology marries MRI and laser, making this process very precise. The neurosurgeon can leave healthy brain tissue unharmed with only 1mm. play.
