On Balloon Assembly

The effectiveness of minimally invasive procedures (diagnostic and therapeutic) has influenced medical practice in cardiology, neurology, nephrology and many other medical disciplines. Devices such as the balloon catheter can travel through minute blood vessels without disturbing the natural shape of the vessels. It is widely used to deliver stents, open blockages, dilating vessels and much more. The balloon set on the catheter is controlled by the physician and made to inflate at the clogged site. While the material selection is crucial, the manufacturing process with equipment is equally critical to form the highest quality balloon catheters. Balloon catheters provide an ideal platform for deploying flexible circuit combinations, which enables the development of novel techniques. The high precision manufacturing process involves extrusion of the balloon material into the shape of a tube. 

Navigation Medical Sensor Technology

The area of medical sensors is advancing at a fast pace. sensors, in general, are used in medical technology for navigation of catheter devices used in therapeutic procedures serving as the “eyes” of the physician. There are several types of sensors: temperature sensor, pressure sensor, force sensor, and Electromagnetic sensors. There are also a variety of technologies utilized in navigation sensors such as infrared, radiofrequency, ultrasound, and more. Quasar specializes in designing and manufacturing electromagnetic sensors that are rapidly becoming known for the wide range of advantages in many therapeutic procedures. Electromagnetic sensors function in a ‘passive’ form requiring an external energy source equipped with multiple coils for positioning identification. Embedded or mounted on the distal tip of a catheter and passed through a blood vessel, the sensor receives induced electromagnetic waves while interacting with an external signal.
