The light augmentation device (LAD((R))) is a new disposable tool designed to improve observation by transillumination in laparoscopic surgery. It can be introduced into the abdomen through an 11-12mm port as a supplementary light source. The miniaturized design allows the surgeon to pick up the device with an endograsper and to place it under direct vision where needed.

Abstract
The light augmentation device (LAD((R))) is a new disposable tool designed to improve observation by transillumination in laparoscopic surgery. It can be introduced into the abdomen through an 11-12mm port as a supplementary light source. The miniaturized design allows the surgeon to pick up the device with an endograsper and to place it under direct vision where needed. This proof-of-concept study demonstrated safety and efficacy of the device in the animal model.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
