Earlier this year, Ziehm acquired French-based imaging software developer Therenva, which specializes in cardiovascular procedures. Combining Ziehm's Vision RFD Hybrid Edition and Thereneva's EndoNaut means physicians benefit from interventional imaging with 3D intraoperative navigation. The pair are working to co-develop new image-based decision-support systems in the cardiovascular field and potentially other clinical areas, they said.

Ziehm Vision RFD 3D has complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology with 2D and 3D functionality and reduces the need for postoperative CT scans and costly corrective surgeries, the firm added.
