iWand Manual Radionuclide Applicator System
Manual Radionuclide Applicator System
Liberty Vision Corporation has designed and manufactured an FDA 510(k) cleared high-dose-rate beta radiation disc source (the LV Y-90 Disc). To facilitate disc placement on the eye, two FDA Class-I hand-held devices are available: iWand® A (for Anterior placement) and iWand® P (for Posterior placement).
Each was specifically designed to safely optimize episcleral application of the LV Y-90 Disc.
KEY FEATURES:
Extraocular, minimally invasive
Hand-held applicators facilitate radiation placement
Accurate, reproducible source positioning
Minimal side scatter to healthy tissues
A single-use quick treatment
iWand® A — For Anterior Use
The iWand A was designed for episcleral treatment of anterior segment ocular diseases with beta radiation using the LV Y-90 Disc. The light and ergonomic iWand A radionuclide applicator can be directly applied to the anterior ocular target, with or without prior surgery. The anterior segment applicator features an advanced see-through polymer that aids in shielding the surgeon from radiation exposure, while allowing a view of the ocular target during treatment. Each iWand A hand-held applicator is pre-sterilized and individually packaged for single use. This unique Liberty Vision system offers unique and helpful features. The LV Y-90 Disc's short half-life is environmentally friendly and facilitates disposal.

iWand® P — For Posterior Use
The iWand P was designed for episcleral treatment of posterior ocular tumors and benign growths. Optimized for extraocular placement of beta radiation, the iWand P holds the patented LV Y-90 Disc. Therefore, it requires minimal surgery for exact placement. Liberty Vision makes viewing of the disc behind the eye possible by incorporating four surrounding and thus guiding lights around the LV Y-90 Disc. Utilizing ophthalmoscopy (indirect or photographic) to view those four lights during implantation, the surgeon positions and localizes the disc over the targeted zone. The iWand P lights circumscribe the target, and offer direct, recordable confirmation of LV Y-90 Disc's location during treatment. Each superlight and ergonomic iWand P is individually packaged and sterile for single use.
