Here's a little from an interesting piece by Lindsay Patton on Dailyrx.com about Torax Medical's anti-acid reflux device. Mayo Clinic helped launch Torax in 2003 and Mayo Medical Ventures has invested in the company in the past…FDA panel has given unanimous support to LINX, an implantable device to treat chronic and severe acid reflux. That means LINX is one step closer to being available for US patients.
