| CoreLink LLC, a rapidly growing vertically integrated spine implant system design and manufacturer, has released the Foundation 3D interbody fusion system for cervical and lumbar fusion. The titanium device utilizes additive manufacturing to create the key to mimicking natural bones. Characteristics of the bionic metal technology, with 100% open pore structure and micro-rough pores and significant water wicking properties.  "We are proud of F3D because we expect significant improvement in patient care, and because it will establish CoreLink as a leader in additive manufacturing," said Jay Bartling, CEO of CoreLink. The lumbar device uses the patent-pending StrutSure technology, which has an asymmetrical load distribution support structure and interconnected lattices, designed to provide the best balance between strength, stiffness and stability. This unique market support structure Minimize the overall implant density and provide good imaging characteristics. Internal tests show that the foundation's 3D lumbar vertebral intermediate has a lower elastic modulus than PEEK, which can reduce stress occlusions and achieve Wolff's law in three key areas. Advantages: Interface with vertebral endplates, central implant columns and within the barrier of the device itself. 'I really appreciate the possibility of endplate growth on porous metal surfaces, which seems to provide faster fusion stability before the entire disk space grows. This is a good system for me and my patients. ' Los Angeles Justin Owen MD, Slade's neurosurgeon. After a limited initial release, CoreLink has now released all of the current commercial quantities of all three devices: the cervix, lumbar spine and lumbar spine, and they are individually pre-assembled sterile. |
