GE Healthcare and Veran Medical Technologies have announced that they have entered into a strategic alliance to advance and co-develop navigation technologies for interventional procedures to improve the care and management of cancer patients. As part of the alliance, the GE Healthymagination Fund is investing in Veran. The financial terms were undisclosed. Veran manufactures the ig4 navigation system which integrates multi-modality information at the point of patient care in the interventional suite and combines that information with electromagnetic tracking of instruments with imbedded sensors.
