 PROFILE
Whether you're suffering from painful, swollen legs or are just vain about your veins, VNUS Medical Technology can zap your gams back to health. The company's Closure system treats venous reflux disease, a leg condition that can lead to varicose veins, swelling, and skin ulcers. The minimally invasive system uses catheters and a radio-frequency generator to close the diseased veins, usually on an outpatient basis. VNUS Medical Technology's revenue comes mainly from the sale or rental of the system's generators, catheters, and accessories to general and vascular surgeons and phlebologists in the US and certain European countries. The company was founded in 1995.
