Caldera Medical, a leader in women's health medical devices, announced today the acquisition of UVision 360, Inc., the developer of the LUMINELLE® hysteroscopy and cystoscopy systems. This strategic acquisition bolsters Caldera Medical's minimally invasive solutions, particularly in the realm of advanced hysteroscopy, broadening its portfolio for the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as polyps, fibroids, and intrauterine pathology.
"We are excited to integrate LUMINELLE's technology into Caldera Medical's growing portfolio," said Bryon Merade, CEO of Caldera Medical. "This acquisition strengthens our commitment to offering gynecologic surgeons state-of-the-art tools that streamline hysteroscopic procedures while enhancing patient safety and clinical outcomes."
The LUMINELLE® system, known for its high-resolution optics and ease of use, provides a cost-effective alternative for both diagnostic and therapeutic hysteroscopy. Its compatibility with existing surgical workflows makes it an attractive option for gynecologic surgeons seeking minimally invasive, efficient solutions that improve procedural precision and patient recovery time.

I'm particularly excited about our new LUMINELLE® Bx product, which allows physicians to achieve a more accurate and precise diagnosis through its novel on-demand biopsy technology with integrated visualization. With Caldera's commercial infrastructure and investment in women's health, we will be able to provide both physicians and patients with a solution to the flawed uterine disease diagnosis market dominated by inaccurate blind biopsies."
"The LUMINELLE team has worked diligently to finally provide an accurate and easy diagnosis to a growing deadly disease, Uterine Cancer," said Allison London Brown, CEO and co-founder of LUMINELLE. "We are excited that Caldera Medical shares our vision and will accomplish this mission."
