CLERAD

All the medical devices for the oncology in the operating room

CLERAD began in 2000 designing and making medical devices dedicated to the gamma rays detection, and especially for the Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB). Then, the product portofolio was strenghtened to achieve two targets:

1. To offer a global solution for the oncology in the operating room concerning all the medical treatment and imaging modalities:

  • Treatment
  • Surgery
  • Chemotherapy
  • Radiotherapy
  • Imaging
  • Scintigraphy
  • Radiography
  • Fluorescence

2. To supply a global approach for a desease diagnosis and treatment, e.g breast cancer.

Our skills

  • Product design and development in our engineering and design office (in physics and electronic)
  • The industrialization
  • IIa and IIb medical devices production
