Osseon Therapeutics CEO John Stalcup said the capability to access the entire vertebra through a single point of access reduces procedure time and decreases pain and risk to the patient compared to current systems requiring multiple access points.
"These are significant clinical enhancements over existing kyphoplasty systems," Stalcup said.
