Toronto, Ontario - November 7, 2013 - Novadaq® Technologies Inc. ("Novadaq" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NVDQ, TSX: NDQ), a developer of clinically-relevant imaging solutions for use in surgical and outpatient wound care procedures, as well as Swissray Asia, a leading distributor of radiation oncology and medical imaging equipment in Southeast Asia, today announced that the companies have entered into an international distribution agreement pursuant to which Swissray Asia has become the exclusive distributor of Novadaq Imaging Systems for the regions of Australia and Indonesia, as well as other Southeast Asia and Oceania countries. Novadaq and Swissray have agreed upon minimum annual purchase commitments for each country in the territories."The agreements signed today cover markets representing more than 400 million people," stated Dr. Arun Menawat, Ph.D., M.B.A., president and chief executive officer of Novadaq. "Swissray is a leading manufacturer and distributor of global medical equipment brands to hospitals in these territories, and we believe they will be a strong partner to introduce Novadaq's point-of-care fluorescence imaging technologies into these large and growing markets.""Since its introduction of the world's first-ever digitized X-ray system, Swissray has consistently delivered world-class performance and quality with its ddR (direct digital radiography) devices," said CEO of Swissray, Jack Lee. "We are proud that in the ever-growing Asian markets, our company can form an alliance with Novadaq, an innovative pioneer in the field of fluorescence imaging. The two companies share the same passion and persistence in creating high quality medical devices and caring for patients. We look forward to the success and growth of our collaboration with Novadaq in the APAC region."
About Novadaq Technologies Inc Enabling medical professionals with clinically-relevant, point-of-care imaging solutions to enhance the lives of patients and their caregivers, while reducing health care costs, is Novadaq's global mission. SPY® fluorescence imaging technology provides surgeons with real-time visualization, leading to improved outcomes and reduced costs without exposing the patient to radiation. More than 80 peer-reviewed publications demonstrate that the use of SPY imaging during complex surgery, leads to fewer post-operative complications and lower hospital costs. SPY Imaging Systems are United States Food and Drug Administration 510(k) cleared for use in seven surgical specialties. The endoscopic version of SPY called PINPOINT®, combines the capabilities of SPY Imaging with high definition ("HD") visible light visualization offered by conventional endoscopes. LUNA™ is used to assess perfusion in patients being treated for non-healing wounds. In August 2013, Novadaq acquired the surgical scintigraphy imaging technology, which is being developed for perioperative imaging of sentinel lymph nodes and tumor margins. Our unique business model of partnering with market-leading companies to drive adoption of our fluorescence imaging technology, while building our own commercial infrastructure, is the cornerstone of our corporate strategy for growth.
PINPOINT Imaging for Minimally Invasive Surgery Novadaq's PINPOINT Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging System combines all of the fluorescence imaging capabilities of SPY Imaging with the HD visible light imaging capabilities of a traditional endoscopic imaging system. PINPOINT can be used as a traditional endoscope and to obtain fluorescence images either on demand or in a simultaneous imaging mode during minimally invasive surgery. The demand for minimally invasive procedures is rapidly growing as patients enjoy the cosmetic benefits and faster recovery times as a result of the small incision. However, small incisions result in reduced visibility for surgeons, and therefore increase the complexity of procedures and the potential for complications. Based on experiences using the SPY System in open surgery, minimally invasive surgeons anticipate that the use of PINPOINT Imaging may assist surgeons by enabling better visualization of important anatomic structures and providing functional imaging information, thereby resulting in reduced incidences of post-operative complications and lower costs of care.
