PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:
EOS imaging (Paris:EOSI) (Euronext, FR0011191766 - EOSI - Eligible PEA - PME), a leader in 2D/3D orthopedic medical imaging and software solutions for 3D anatomical modeling and surgical planning, today announced it has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its new generation imaging system, EOSedge. Receipt of FDA 510(k) clearance follows the commercial launch of EOSedge in Europe, Canada and Australia earlier this week. The new system will be unveiled at the upcoming Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) 2019 Annual Meeting starting on December 1st, in Chicago.
EOSedge is the first general X-ray system powered by a high-resolution photon counting detector, delivering optimal image quality for outstanding musculoskeletal imaging exams.
