"I believe 25 million back pain patients will benefit from the evolution of a new era in treatment in the relatively near future. One that is focused for the first time on therapeutic options prior to fusion", said Robin Young, the meeting organizer and publisher of Orthopedics This Week.
"Interventional Spine, Inc. is proud to present at and participate as a sponsor of the Spine Technology Summit. The core focus of this meeting is to discuss new patient options that can relieve pain sooner, decrease complications and recovery time, improve quality of life for patients, and reduce the costs associated with back problems. We appreciate the opportunity to tell our story at industry conferences like the Spine Technology Summit and to participate in a marketplace with many innovative and beneficial opportunities for the patients" said Mr. Cuevas. He continued by stating "Presently, the cost of conventional treatment modes have a negative impact in our economy and in our ability as a nation to address unmet medical needs. First-to-market is now also a concept understood by both industry and medicine. Large spine companies have been driven to consolidate around new technologies in order to provide therapies to increasingly internet informed patients."
