Episurf Medical continues to build its patent portfolio in Japan, announcing that the regional office will grant another patent titled “System and method for creating a decision support material indicating damage to an anatomical joint,” addressing 3D-based assessment of joint lesions.
Previously-granted patents in Japan addressed the company’s individualized Episealer® Femoral Twin joint implant and its design, as well as medical image segmentation used for joint damage visualization and the manufacturing of personalized joint implants and surgical instruments.
“This is a core patent for Episurf’s medical imaging technology, and we are happy to get it approved in strategically selected countries,” said Katarina Flodström, COO.
