FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- Misonix, Inc., a developer of minimally invasive ultrasonic medical device technology, used in Europe for the ablation of cancer and worldwide for other acute health conditions, has entered into a two year, exclusive distribution agreement with privately-held North Med, based near Prague in the Czech Republic, for the distribution of the SonaStar(TM) Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator, the BoneScalpel(TM) Ultrasonic Bone Cutter, and the SonicOne(R) Ultrasonic Wound Debrider. The agreement provides North Med with the rights to sell in the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic, and includes minimum purchase requirements.

North Med distributes state-of-the-art medical devices and capital equipment in both countries, with special emphasis on neurosurgery, spine surgery, oncologic surgery, and orthopedic surgery.

The SonaStar is used by Neuro and General Surgeons for quick and efficient removal of both hard and soft tumors while sparing most vessels. In addition, OsteoSculpt(TM) bone sculpting technology can be employed with the SonaStar to safely remove osseous structures, thus providing access to the surgical site.
The BoneScalpel is a tissue specific osteotomy device capable of making precise cuts through bone and hard tissue while largely preserving delicate soft tissue structures. It offers the convenience and speed of a power instrument without the danger associated with rotary sharps.

The SonicOne is an innovative, ultrasonic wound care system that offers tissue specific debridement and cleansing for effective removal of devitalized tissue and fibrin deposits while sparing viable cellular structures. The SonicOne establishes a new standard in advanced wound care and ensures progress toward patient healing.
