Xenocor Secures U.S. Patent for Single-Use Medical Borescope Technology

Xenocor, a Utah-based medical device company dedicated to transforming surgical visualization, announced it has received a U.S. patent for its next-generation single-use medical borescope technology, designed to improve visualization during minimally invasive procedures. The patented system integrates a lightweight optical sensor and advanced image-processing algorithms, enabling high-resolution imaging without the need for reusable or sterilized components. The company stated that the design reduces the risk of infection and lowers maintenance costs for hospitals and surgical centers.

The patent aligns with healthcare’s shift toward disposable, infection-resistant medical devices, the company said. Xenocor’s approach, which combines affordability with real-time image quality, could appeal to smaller facilities seeking to modernize their surgical imaging without incurring significant capital investments.
