This episode features Ben Merewitz, CEO and Co-founder of Agile Devices. Ben discusses the challenges faced by interventional radiologists when navigating complex anatomy with traditional microcatheters, such as difficulties in maneuvering through tortuous vessels and achieving precise target placement. Agile Devices has developed a novel, microcatheter with active tip control, called Angler, that overcomes these limitations by allowing real-time control of the tip's shape, enabling physicians to navigate complex anatomy with greater ease and precision.
The company has received FDA clearance for the Angler and is currently conducting limited releases to gather further clinical data and demonstrate the device's effectiveness in various interventional procedures, such as embolization. Ben highlights the importance of the Boston area's vibrant medical device ecosystem in the development of this innovative technology and discusses the company's future plans, including expanding into new markets and developing new applications for their deflectable technology platform. With an ‘agile’ approach, Ben’s story is sure to keep you informed and inspired.
