KARL STORZ develops state-of-the-art technology for minimally invasive surgical procedures in virtually all specialties. Our flagship visualization platform, IMAGE1 S™, can form the basis of a completely integrated OR that gives surgeons the most advanced capabilities and helps optimize the overall level of care they can deliver to their patients. Image enhancement modalities, such as CLARA, CHROMA, and RUBINA™, provide greater detail and insight into challenging anatomical areas. CLARA instantly brightens dark areas to ensure proper illumination is delivered to each segment of the endoscopic image. CHROMA automatically intensifies the red-color contrast, promoting more clear differentiation of tissue. RUBINA™ harnesses the power of fluorescence imaging to reveal details that would be hard to discern using white-light alone, with superb edge-to-edge focus across the imaging field. Combined with full-HD, Flexible Video Endoscopes and 4K multi-chip camera heads, these modular components allow broad customization and dramatically increase visibility during endoscopic interventions under complex surgical conditions.
