  1. Vaginal Tactile Imager (VTI)

A clinically validated device to aid in diagnosis and evaluation of vaginal and pelvic floor conditions. It provides Biomechanical Integrity score (BI-score) as well as quantitative data for:

  • Vaginal tissue elasticity

  • Pelvic floor support

  • Pelvic muscle contraction

  • Muscle relaxation

  • Muscle mobility

CPT Code: 0487T
Biomechanical mapping, transvaginal, with report

FDA Approval (USA)
CE Mark (Europe)
TGA Approval (Australia)

Advancements for

  • Urogynecology

  • Gynecology

  • Physiotherapy

  • Cosmetic Gynecology

Indications for Use (FDA)

"The Vaginal Tactile Imager obtains a high-resolution mapping of pressures and assesses the strength of pelvic floor muscles within the vagina. It is used in a medical setting to acquire the pressures and store the corresponding data. It also provides visualization, analysis tools and information. The real-time data, as well the analysis information, can then be viewed with an intention of assisting in the diagnosis and evaluation. The device is intended for use by physicians, surgeons and medically trained personnel."

Clinical Utility

The VTI may be used for:

  1. POP (Pelvic Organ Prolapse): To characterize its development in biomechanical terms.

  2. UI (Urinary Incontinence): To quantify pelvic muscle defects that contribute to UI.

  3. Surgery: To provide metrics for pelvic floor surgery outcomes.

  4. Physiotherapy: To monitor pelvic conditions during the course of applied treatment.

  5. RF (Radiofrequency) and Laser treatments: To evaluate vaginal conditions before and after laser or RF treatment.

  6. Military and Sport: To monitor pelvic floor changes under heavy, repetitive loads.

2. Vaginal Tactile Ultrasound Imager (TIUSv)

A unique device to aid in diagnosis and evaluation of vaginal and pelvic floor conditions. It provides tactile (stress) and ultrasound image (anatomical, strain) fusion using the vaginal probe.

Indications for Use:

“The Vaginal Tactile Ultrasound Imager obtains a high-resolution mapping of pressures, ultrasound images and assesses the strength of pelvic floor muscles within the vagina. It is used in a medical setting to acquire the pressures, ultrasound images and store the corresponding data. It also provides visualization, analysis tools and information. The real time data as well as the analysis information can then be viewed with an intention of assisting in the diagnosis and evaluation. The device is intended for use by physicians, surgeons and medically trained personnel.”
