Acclarent’s RELIEVA SCOUT Sinus Dilator Now Available in U.S.
Acclarent, a J&J firm, is releasing in the U.S. its RELIEVA SCOUT multi-sinus dilation system, a balloon sinuplasty device for widening the sinus openings in people with chronic sinusitis.
The device uses a flexible balloon that reaches a bit further out from the tip to be able to get deeper into the anatomy.
