- CVR Medical Corp. CVR Medical Corp. (CRRVF), a medical technology company incorporated in 1980 and headquartered in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, develops and commercializes subsonic, infrasonic, and low frequency sound wave analysis technology for healthcare applications; its primary product is the patented Carotid Stenotic Scan (CSS) device, a non-invasive diagnostic tool that detects and measures carotid arterial stenosis to identify patients at risk for ischemic stroke, complementing technologies such as Duplex Doppler ultrasound, magnetic resonance angiography, and computed tomography angiography; the CSS targets patients, payers, and healthcare providers, including primary care physicians, with operations focused on North America. The company offers the CSS as a quick, cost-effective screening solution performed in minutes without radiation, dyes, or certified technicians. In recent developments, CVR Medical executed an amended restructuring agreement in April 2021 to acquire all intellectual property and operational control of the CSS from CVR Global, Inc., including exclusive rights to future innovations and applications beyond carotid artery assessment, subject to shareholder and TSX Venture Exchange approval; this strategic shift eliminated prior dependencies, enabling independent pursuit of clinical trials, FDA submissions, and commercialization while securing a pipeline for product enhancements; earlier, in January 2022, the company announced a capital raise to support these advancements.
