Multiple Clinical Applications for Our ClearPoint System Platform Electrode Placement and Laser Ablation Drug Delivery Significant Unmet Medical Parkinson’s disease, Epilepsy, Brain Tumor, Dystonia Enabling Multiple Therapies from Multiple Companies: Electrode Placement: Medtronic, St. Jude, Neuropace Laser Ablation: MDT/Visualase, Monteris Drug Delivery: Voyager, Medicenna, Oxford Biomedica, Int’l Stem Cell (1) Laser Ablation - MR Thermometry is an MRI-based functionality available on most MR scanner platforms and it is a feature built into products from several third party vendors. The ClearPoint system enables MRI-guided procedures and allows physicians to use this inherent MR capability during a procedure. (2) Drug Delivery - The SmartFlow® cannula received 510(k) clearance for injection of cytarabine, a chemotherapy drug, to the ventricles or removal of CSF from the ventricles during intracranial procedures. Delivery of other therapeutic agents, and delivery of agents to other areas of the brain, using the SmartFlow cannula is investigational. © 2017 MRI INTERVENTIONS, INC. | 11
