Neural Fiber Optic Systems

Neural Fiber Optic Systems is a private medical device company developing minimally invasive fiber optic systems to monitor blood flow and oxygenation in the spinal cord and brain. Its lead product, FLOXsp, is designed for short-term epidural placement before, during, and after surgical procedures in which the spinal cord is at risk of ischemic injury. The company positions its technology as a real-time monitoring solution intended to help prevent paralysis and other complications associated with spinal cord ischemia during aortic and major spine surgery. Neural Fiber Optic Systems has received FDA Breakthrough Device designation for FLOXsp and appears to operate as a very small, early-stage healthcare technology company based in Richardson, Texas.
