Indivion pharmacy dispenser
The INDIVION is the most cost-effective solution available on the market due to the reduction in manual labour and a minimal number of errors that equates to almost zero. This technology, together with the use of validated and certified materials, reduces the business risks for medicine dispensers but, more importantly, reduces health risks to patients. And, ultimately, that’s what it’s all about.
The fully-automated INDIVION medicine dosage system comprises an industrial robot that puts canisters, each filled with a specific medication, onto the correct docking stations so that the medications can be dispensed.
The INDIVION canisters each have a unique RFID tag from which the correct information can be read by a reader linked to the PHARYS database so that the reader can determine precisely which medications are in the machine, and how to control this specific canister for the correct dispensation of medicines. Single dose, multi dose, rush orders, expiry date-related changes, production related to method of treatment; all this is possible using the PHARYS software that helps safeguard the entire process-management chain in the central filling pharmacy together with the control of the INDIVION. The INDIVION has unrivalled capacity and produces up to 10,000 individual units per hour, while providing an absolute minimum risk of cross-contamination and incorrect dosage. The dispensation accuracy of 99.97% is also unrivalled in the market.

Esteya electronic brachytherapy
Nucletron, an Elekta company, and the world leader in brachytherapy, has launched Esteya®, the non-invasive solution for treating patients with skin cancer.
​
As treatment times are only two to three
minutes per visit, Esteya can be a great option
for patients with an active lifestyle.
Esteya provides a targeted yet gentle skin cancer treatment through the delivery of a precise high dose of radiation to the cancerous site,
minimizing radiation to surrounding healthy tissue, reducing the chance of scarring. Because the treatment is short and gentle, patients can expect a rapid recovery period and may return to their normal routine quickly.
Esteya is especially beneficial in treating cosmetically challenging areas such as the nose, lips, cheeks, temples and fingers, and for areas prone to wound closure problems, such as the shin and scalp. Esteya may also be the preferred option for patients for whom surgery presents a high intra-operative or post-operative risk of complications.
Esteya provides an elegant approach for treating skin cancer, featuring the right size and portability to be used anywhere in the clinic.

Covid-19 vaccine Skycovion
TSK bioscience’s Skycovion is Korea’s first domestically developed Covid-19 vaccine, listed for emergency use by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Skycovion is a recombinant vaccine that uses protein antigens. Inside the body, the antigens stimulate an immune response that creates antibodies to fight off the virus in case of infection.
Skycovion has small particles known as nano-particles containing parts of the spike protein found on the surface of SARS-CoV-2.
The vaccines will be especially helpful for people in developing countries as they can be stored in normal refrigerators at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius unlike Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, which use mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) technology and require extremely low temperatures to remain effective. SKYCovione received approval from a British regulator in May, becoming the first homegrown vaccine to gain sales approval in a foreign country.
“Based on the immunogenicity and safety profile, SKYCovione has become the first Korean vaccine to be put on the WHO EUL," said Ahn Jae-yong, SK bioscience CEO. "We will be committed to developing more vaccines to not just strengthen Korea's vaccine sovereignty, but also to enable equitable access of the vaccine.”
