ST. LOUIS, July 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stereotaxis, Inc. (OTCQX:STXS), a global leader in innovative robotic technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, today announced that it has secured second Odyssey Vision™ system orders from McLaren Bay Region Hospital in Michigan and Abrazo Arizona Heart Institute. Ranked among the top 10% in the nation for coronary interventional procedures by Healthgrades, McLaren Bay Region began utilizing the Odyssey Vision in September 2013. Arizona Heart Institute, a world-renowned destination for heart and vascular care, purchased its first Odyssey Vision system in March 2012.
“We are continually looking for ways to learn and grow in the ever changing field of electrophysiology (EP) to improve patient quality of life,” said Magen Samyn, Vice President, Marketing & Business Development at McLaren Bay Region. “The demonstrated performance of the Odyssey Vision system in our EP laboratory confirms that it is the consummate solution for enhancing our decision making and delivery of treatment options.
