Our Unique Tech Features
VerAvanti’s Scanning Fiber Endoscope (SFE) redefines intravascular imaging with forward-looking, high-resolution technology. Unlike side-view methods, it will offer real-time, full-color visuals deep within arteries, revealing plaques and defects with unmatched clarity. Featuring a 1 mm probe and over 1.2 million pixels, the SFE platform will deliver laser-based, high-resolution imaging while eliminating blind spots for precise lesion assessment.
Imaging Modalities & Capabilities
Our SFE laser engine supports a growing range of imaging modalities, from standard color visualization to advanced spectroscopic and molecular techniques. Each modality runs through the same compact, single-fiber platform, expanding what is possible within the physical constraints of minimally invasive procedures.

A Look Inside Our Scanning Fiber Endoscope (SFE)
VerAvanti's innovative imaging technology aims to extend its capabilities far beyond intravascular health, addressing critical needs across multiple medical fields. From gastroenterology and pulmonology to urology and dental care, our advanced solutions could empower clinicians with unparalleled diagnostic precision and therapeutic guidance.
SFE generates images by projecting red, green, and blue laser light in a controlled spiral scanning pattern.
As the beam scans forward, reflected light is collected to reconstruct a full-color image in real time. This pixel-by-pixel acquisition enables continuous visualization with high sensitivity and efficient light use.
At the core of SFE is a microelectromechanical (MEMS) actuator that drives the scanning motion of the optical fiber.
This mechanism is integrated within a probe measuring approximately 1 mm in diameter and a few millimeters in length, enabling precise beam control within an ultra-compact form factor.
