Who is OnLume Surgical?
We are a Madison, WI-based medical device company that develops innovative medical imaging technology designed to advance surgical precision, optimize patient outcomes and reduce morbidity and costs.
We pioneered advances in fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) to provide surgeons with improved visualization of critical anatomy in real-time during surgery. Our novel technology provides high image quality with low fluorescent agent concentrations. And, it is optimized for surgical workflows – including compatibility with ambient operating room lighting!
The OnLume Imaging System is compatible with a broad and growing spectrum of targeted fluorescent drugs for applications across a wide range of surgical specialties.
The OnLume system is cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for fluorescence imaging of blood flow and tissue perfusion before, during, and after vascular, gastrointestinal, organ transplant, plastic, reconstructive, and micro surgeries.
The use of FDA-approved indocyanine green (ICG) dye in such applications helps visualize vascular patency and identify regions of poor blood flow that may lead to post-surgical complications. Future applications of OnLume’s FGS platform include cancer margin imaging and nerve imaging.
Our Mission, Vision & Values
At OnLume Surgical, we are driven to unleash the full clinical potential of fluorescence-guided surgery through the passionate, skillful application of science and innovation.
We love people as much as we love science, engineering, and medicine. We value life as much as we do innovation. Fueled by our values, we undertake each day the bold commercialization of our novel fluorescence-guided surgical imaging devices to advance surgical precision for the benefit of worldwide public health.
Why is this important? Because existing fluorescence-guided surgery technology only scratches the surface of what is possible. We’re eager to show the world how our novel approach dramatically enhances surgical visualization and precision – and can improve patient outcomes. Visit our technology page for more information.
What makes OnLume uniquely prepared to achieve these monumental goals? We benefit from and are grateful for the sturdy roots we have developed in the fertile soil of the science and medical communities of the University of Wisconsin – Madison campus. Explore more here.
Now is a unique moment in time. Myriad FGS drugs are being developed by scientists worldwide. By seeking out and collaborating with the best of these scientists, institutions, and companies, we will optimize visibility of vessels, nerves and cancer margins in real time during surgery in ways heretofore thought impossible.
