Growth among its medical device products powered ultrasound technology developer Misonix of Farmingdale, NY, to greater revenue in the company's fourth fiscal quarter and 2010 fiscal year (end-June 30).
Revenues from continuing operations in fiscal 2010 increased 5% to $13.4 million, compared with $12.7 million in fiscal 2009. Medical device sales increased 11% to $10.7 million in fiscal 2010. The company also reported a net loss from continuing operations for the fiscal year of $2.2 million, compared with a loss from continuing operations of $1.6 million in fiscal 2009.
Misonix's total net loss for fiscal 2010 was $2.9 million, which included a loss of $671,000 from discontinued operations due to the sale of its Labcaire, Sonora, and Focus Surgery high-intensity focused ultrasound business during the fiscal year. In fiscal 2009, the company reported net income of $2.1 million from discontinued operations.
Revenue from continuing operations in the fourth fiscal quarter increased 43% to $4.3 million, compared with $3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Medical device sales advanced 60% to $3.6 million in the fourth quarter. The growth was due primarily to an increase in BoneScalpel sales.
Misonix also reported a net loss from continuing operations of $588,000 in the fourth quarter, compared with a loss of $1.2 million the same quarter of fiscal 2009.
The company's total fourth-quarter net loss was $1.5 million. The net loss included a loss from discontinued operations of $874,000 related to the sale of Labcaire, Sonora, and Focus Surgery. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, Misonix reported income from discontinued operations of $3.6 million, primarily from the sale of its Ultrasonic business in April 2009.

![Examples of ultrasound findings and techniques. (A) Images in a 39-year-old male patient with a mass in the left thigh. The mass is heterogeneous on the B-mode US image (compared with the patient in D) and showed increased microvascularity (superb microvascular imaging [SMI]) and shear-wave elastography (SWE) values. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma was diagnosed at biopsy (with pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma in surgical specimen). (B) Images in an 18-year-old male patient with a mass in the left leg. The mass is hypoechoic on the B-mode image, with no other findings suggestive of malignancy. The lesion is in contact with the cortex of the tibia, which is slightly irregular. CT revealed a doubtful anteromedial tibial erosion. The microvascular study demonstrated high vascularization, suggestive of malignancy. Periosteal Ewing sarcoma was diagnosed with both histologic and immunohistochemical confirmation. (C) Images in a 69-year-old female patient with a lump growing on the outside of the left leg. Multiple SWE examinations were performed (please note the high values obtained in the measurements, whereas the color map highlights the stiffness relative to adjacent tissues). SMI showed areas of increased vascularization to target for sampling. Undifferentiated spindle cell sarcoma was diagnosed at biopsy, with residual leiomyosarcoma in the surgical specimen after neoadjuvant therapy. (D) Images in a 56-year-old female patient with a mass in the right thigh. The mass is heterogeneous at both B-mode ultrasound (similar to patient A) and MRI (coronal T2-weighted spectral attenuated inversion recovery [SPAIR]; T1-weighted pre-contrast and postcontrast imaging), which even shows uptake after the administration of paramagnetic contrast material, which is traditionally suggestive of malignancy. Low values at SMI and elastography are suggestive of benignity. Spindle cell lipoma was diagnosed at biopsy, with atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor in the surgical specimen.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/08/images-radiol250278fig2.APCFLSvX6p.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=crop&h=100&q=70&w=100)
