CLS has a commercial collaboration with ClearPoint Neuro in neurosurgery aimed at developing and commercializing a fully integrated system for MRI image-guided stereotactic laser ablation with very high precision. By offering a solution where both companies' technologies are integrated, the user can identify the target tissue, navigate and position the system's laser applicator, and monitor and control the ablation process in the target tissue with very high precision and accuracy. This order is part of ClearPoint Neuro's limited market release in North America and follows a previous order that CLS received in December 2023 of approximately SEK 2.4 million, bringing the total value of the latest deal to approximately SEK 10.5 million.

"These are important orders that represent another milestone in our collaboration with ClearPoint Neuro. The limited market release that ClearPoint Neuro is now conducting in the North American market has proceeded according to plan and this latest order is a step in the ambition to expand the limited market release with additional clinics in addition to the four that are already included in the program. We are receiving a very positive response and important insights from the clinics we are now working with. Insights from the limited market release will form the basis for further system optimization ahead of the full market launch that is planned to begin in the second half of this year," says Dan J. Mogren, CEO of CLS.

The ClearPoint Prism™Neuro Laser Therapy System (https://www.clearpointneuro.com/healthcare-professionals/catheter-placement/) enables integration with the ClearPoint neuro navigation platform and MRI scanners from leading manufacturers. The system is now being rolled out in the United States for use within neurosurgery.
