Varix Medical Corporation, located in Sunnyvale, Calif., is a medical device company focused on developing products for the minimally invasive treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, commonly referred to as "varicose veins." For patients with advanced stages of varicose veins, laser- and RF-based (radiofrequency) treatments have been developed, but each device has deficiencies making them less-than-optimal solutions. Varix Medical's platform technology will enable physicians to efficiently and effectively treat more types of diseased veins than is currently possible when using either laser or RF devices. Additional treatable vessels include tortuous sub-truncal vessels and other visible smaller varicose veins. The Varix platform employs a vapor-based endovenous ablation system that will consist of a disposable catheter, a catheter introducer or delivery system, and a reusable vapor generator. RCT and Coronis Medical Ventures LLC., formed Varix in August 2007 and acquired the technology under license from Tsunami MedTech LLC. Coronis and RCT have been the primary in investors in Varix.
