I am constantly looking for highly disruptive technology companies in orthopedics. Trice Medical is one. I am a big fan of Trice. I am calling this one early! Trice Medical will be a highly successful startup. In many ways, Trice reminds me of my last successful disruptive startup, Ellipse Technologies.
WHAT IS TRICE DOING?
Trice Medical sells an "in-the-office diagnostic arthroscopy". The mi-eye 2™system is fully integrated with a camera, light source, and cannula. It connects to a tablet for visualization. Trice Medical provides the mi-eye 2™ handheld system for a diagnosis of any joint diagnosis with direct visualization within minutes for less than an MRI. Instantly, the patient can have a proper diagnosis of the soft tissues inside the joint in minutes, no waiting.
I believe that Trice will both delay and replace expensive timely MRI diagnoses as orthopedists discover this tool over time. In the company's own words, "Now, physicians can provide realtime analysis, effect faster treatment, and schedule patients for surgery immediately – resulting in quicker outcomes for patients and a more efficient process for doctors."
