Since 1991, M.I.Tech Co., Ltd. has been developing the market for self-expandable metallic stents while retaining its position as one of the most innovative companies in the medical industry. Self-expandable metallic stent is a metallic tube used in order to hold open a structure in the gastrointestinal tract in order to allow the passage of food.
The vast majority of self-expandable metallic stents are used to alleviate symptoms caused by cancers of the gastrointestinal tract that obstruct the interior of the structures of the bowel (esophagus, duodenum, common bile duct and colon). The self expandable metallic stents are designed to be permanent and are often used when the cancer is at an advanced stage and cannot be removed by surgery.
M.I.Tech aims to produce SEMS designed is to effectively reduce obstructive symptoms and improve the patient's overall quality of life. The company’s non-vascular stents (HANAROSTENT and CHOOSTENT) are being manufactured under the strict quality management system, ISO 13485:2003, to meet the quality requirements from interventional radiologists, therapeutic endoscopists and surgeons.
Furthermore, CE certificate was approved by DNV and FDA approval for esophageal stent was achieved in 2010. The company has also acquired JFDA approval most recently and more than 30 patents in Korea and overseas. More than 40 clinical articles were published on the basis of statistical results from extensive clinical trials, including GIE and Endoscopy journals.
The company’s products have received favorable reviews for its excellent quality from customers in more than 60 countries.
M.I.Tech is gearing up for the upcoming years of medical innovation by equipping itself with such cutting-edge technologies as NT (Nano Technology), MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical System), DBS (Deep Brain Stimulator) and Nano-Platform based on CNT (Carbon Nano-Tube).
Taking advantage of such new technologies, the Korean medical company aims to fully serve physicians by helping them to treat their patients more effectively.
