About Volcano

Volcano Corporation. Cardiology Systems. Volcano Corporation develops, manufactures and commercializes a broad suite of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and OCT (through purchase of CardioSpectra) and functional measurement (FM) products designed to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of vascular and structural heart diseases. As of September 30, 2007, we had more than 2,900 IVUS and FM consoles installed worldwide.

Our IVUS products consist of consoles that can be integrated directly into virtually any modern cath lab. In addition, we offer both phased array and rotational single-use IVUS imaging catheters and advanced functionality options such as VH™ IVUS tissue characterization. Our IVUS offerings are used by clinicians to produce a cross-sectional image of the artery and provide information on the composition and density of plaque or lesions caused by the accumulation of fat-laden cells in the inner lining of the artery. Our FM products include consoles and single-use pressure and flow guide wires. These offerings are used to gauge the impact of arterial plaque on blood flow and pressure.

Quotes about Volcano

1. “ This is an important step in demonstrating the ability of Volcano's OCT catheter to safely image coronary vessels of human patients and establishing a leadership position in advanced coronary imaging technologies. ”

   Christopher E. Banas in Volcano Corp Announces First Human Use of the Volcano Optical Coherence Tomography (oct) Imaging Catheter

2. “ The high resolution OCT images provide a glimpse at structural detail not seen before by other imaging modalities. We believe that OCT has the potential to identify thin-cap fibro-atheromas, clearly highlight intraluminal thrombus, and assess the complete healing of novel drug-eluting stent designs. Volcano is committed to exploring the various clinical benefits of our OCT platform through detailed data-driven study design and mutually beneficial partnerships with other therapy companies. ”

   Michel Lussier in Volcano Corp Announces First Human Use of the Volcano Optical Coherence Tomography (oct) Imaging Catheter

3. “ Axsun is another complementary and important transaction for Volcano as it provides us proprietary OCT technology that we believe will both accelerate our OCT product development efforts and provide us significant and sustainable competitive advantages in the invasive imaging arena. ”

   Scott Huennekens in Medical imaging company acquires Axsun Technologies for its OCT expertise
