About CSMG Technologies' Tissue Welding/Bonding Technology

The LTC tissue bonding / welding device is a platform technology that bonds and reconnects living soft biological tissue through fusion without the use of foreign matters, or conventional wound closing devices, such as sutures, staples, sealant, or glues. Surgeons at 27 Ukraine hospitals and clinics are using the tissue welding/bonding technology in clinical trials. They have completed more than 7,000 human surgeries using more than 80 types of open and laparoscopic Laparoscopic
