Clear Guide closes $3m Series A to support Scenergy image guidance system

Clear Guide Medical said today it closed a $3 million Series A round of financing to support its Scenergy CT-Ultrasound fusion and image guidance system designed to aid in minimally invasive biopsies and other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The system operates through an intelligently integrated display of fused ultrasound and CT images, and will be sold as an accessory to ultrasound machines, the Baltimore, Md.-based company said. The round was led by Alpharetta, Ga.-based investment adviser Wildermuth Advisory, the company said in a press release. The company won FDA 510(k) clearance for the imaging guidance system in February. Clear Guide Medical said it designed the Scenergy as a simpler multi-modality imaging system using ultrasound to minimize the number of CT scans and time spent in the CT suite. The company said its device addresses certain design and functional challenges associated with existing fusion CT and ultrasound imaging devices. The system features “intuitive instrument navigation” designed to overlay instrument paths during imaging, as well as the ability to lock in a target and realign the probe from different angles to find the target.
