Precision surgical technology now available to a network of 29 Canadian health care organizations could help thousands of patients across Canada<\/i><\/p>\n

December 15, 2022 (Toronto, Ontario)<\/b> – Following a successful commercialization project funded by the Coordinated Accessible National (CAN) Health Network, MOLLI\u00ae, a homegrown, wire-free, radiation-free technology for breast cancer surgery, has been formally procured by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre (Sunnybrook) under an advanced contract award notice (ACAN) process which can be leveraged by other health care organizations across Canada.<\/span><\/p>\n

MOLLI Surgical\u2019s Health-Canada approved, and FDA-cleared MOLLI features the smallest localization marker on the market that can be used with all soft tissues. MOLLI Surgical is looking forward to applying the benefits of this technology beyond breast disease. The MOLLI Wand\u00ae detects the MOLLI Marker\u00ae \u2014 much like a GPS \u2014 helping surgeons pinpoint lesions more efficiently and with improved accuracy and complete confidence, translating into better surgical options and an improved experience before, during and after surgery.<\/p>\n

\u201cMOLLI began in the hospital as a way to create a better experience for the thousands of patients who are undergoing breast cancer surgery each year,\u201d said Ananth Ravi, CEO and co-founder of MOLLI. \u201cScaling MOLLI across Canada through the CAN Health Network means that more patients will realize a better experience, more radiologists and doctors will see MOLLI\u2019s clinical benefits, and more hospitals will benefit from the improved workflow efficiency. This is a great day for Canadian innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe technology has benefits for our hospital. By using magnetism, it helps us avoid expensive equipment and extensive safety regulations surrounding radiation and disposal protocols,\u201d said Dr. Nicole Look Hong, breast cancer surgeon at Sunnybrook. \u201cMOLLI has also been designed to be compatible with conventional mammography and ultrasound imaging, so we\u2019ve been able to adopt it smoothly.\u201d<\/p>\n

The CAN Health Network supports Canadian businesses and health care by identifying and introducing Canadian-made solutions in the health care marketplace. Through commercialization projects like this one launched by Sunnybrook, companies like MOLLI get access to real-world environments, work closely with clinicians to validate their solutions, and benefit from the Network\u2019s unique procurement process.<\/p>\n

Sunnybrook\u2019s selection of MOLLI under an ACAN \u2014 in addition to successes with St. Joseph\u2019s Healthcare in Hamilton and University Health Network in Toronto \u2014 means that it is now a proven solution within the Network, and all CAN Health Network members can leverage the ACAN to support the adoption of MOLLI within their organizations. This includes 29 health care organizations across Canada, including provincial health authorities and hospitals.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s no easy feat to get innovative, made-in-Canada technologies adopted across our country, but this is what we strive to do,\u201d said Dante Morra, Chair, CAN Health Network. \u201cCongratulations to the MOLLI Surgical team and Sunnybrook on making sure a Canadian product, that has huge impacts on patients and our health care system, can now be scaled across Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00c0 PROPOS DE MOLLI SURGICAL <\/b><\/p>\n

MOLLI Surgical<\/a> started in the operating room, where surgeons were using dated tools to treat cancer patients \u2014 and we knew we could do better. Our surgical wand is precise, reliable, easy-to-use, and built with the realities of the operating room in mind. More importantly, it is built with patients in mind. Our technology replaces procedures to mark lesions with one that is more precise, efficient, and cost-effective.<\/p>\n
