Olympus CAS & GI Physician Talk Power of Partnership and EUS Advancements Jun 24, 2025

Show notes

In this insightful episode of the OlympusTalks podcast, Host Tom Salemi of DeviceTalks explores the powerful partnership between physicians and Clinical Applications Specialists (CAS) in the field of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). Joining the conversation are gastroenterologist Dr. Julie Yang, an early adopter of EUS, and Melissa Elliott-Walker, a seasoned CAS with Olympus. Together, they unpack the critical role CASs play in supporting physicians—from training staff and optimizing imaging to supporting procedural outcomes and patient care.

Dr. Yang shares how Melissa’s expertise helped elevate her practice from the ground up, describing EUS as “the truth” in diagnostic imaging. The episode dives into how EUS has evolved from a diagnostic tool to a therapeutic powerhouse, offering minimally invasive options for patients and playing a pivotal role in diagnosis and staging. Melissa brings her decades of experience in radiology and ultrasound to life, explaining how proximity and precision make EUS the gold standard for pancreatic imaging.¹ She also introduces the emerging potential of shear wave elastography in liver diagnostics.

Product performance may vary, and techniques, instruments, and clinical decisions are unique to each facility and practitioner. Potential complications that may be associated with endoscopic ultrasound include, but are not limited to, the following: sore throat, infection, bleeding, perforation, and/or tumor seeding (when EUS-FNA or FNB is performed).

Can Corcym transform surgical heart valve replacement? Why DeviceTalks Minnesota was nice! Jun 13, 2025

Show notes

In this podcast episode, MassDevice Editor Chris Newmarker sits down with Christian Mazzi, CEO of Corcym — formerly LivaNova’s surgical heart valve business — about how it has transformed since it became an independent company under Gyrus Capital in 2021.

Next up is an effort to expand innovation beyond Corcym’s core heart valve portfolio to areas such as heart failure treatment. Mazzi, though, still has a lot to say about surgical heart valve replacement when speaking with MassDevice Editor in Chief Chris Newmarker. Surgical heart valve procedures are shifting toward being more laparoscopic, and surgical robotics applications are on the horizon. Even as transcatheter heart valves generate a lot of buzz in medtech, surgical heart valve innovation is getting exciting, too. Like the Arthurian heroes that Corcym names its products after, Mazzi and his company are on a quest.

But first Host Tom Salemi, DeviceTalks Managing Editor Kayleen Brown and Newmarker share their highlights of the wildly successful DeviceTalks Minnesota that took place on June 11. Thanks for listening to this episode of the DeviceTalks Weekly Podcast.
