Welcome to Artinis Medical Systems
We are an innovative Dutch company active in the field of medical research and quality assurance. Our goal is to make optical imaging easy. We do so by not only focussing on the usability within the design process - but also by providing superior after-sales support. This is based upon our extensive knowledge of the field and on close co-operation with expert groups at various scientific institutions. We are an independent manufacturer and are therefore able to choose the best components available on the market for our products.
Coming from the research field ourselves, we have a lot of experience in optical oximetry, especially near infrared spectroscopy. Our highly portable and multichannel NIRS devices can be used to monitor oxygen supply non-invasively in both brain and muscle tissue.
Besides NIRS, we create gold standard x-ray phantoms for quality control in mammography and radiology.
Doing business with respect
Since the production of our first NIRS device back in 2002, we've always pushed ourselves to do business in the right way. Every day we strive to deliver our products & services with respect to our environment, our customers, and among our colleagues. Therefore, we are happy to share the tokens of our commitment to do business respectfully.
In 2021, we have officially received the ISO 13485:2016 certification for our quality management system, following audit by the notified body Dekra. ISO 13485:2016 is the internationally recognized standard for quality management systems in the medical device industry and signifies Artinis Medical Systems’ commitment to the highest level of device quality controls and meeting customer and international regulatory expectations. Every NIRS device delivered to you is manufactured based on this quality management system.
It is everyone's duty to improve environmental sustainability. At Artinis, we value the climate highly. Next to solar panels and LED lightings in our buildings to minimize our energy use, we ship all our packages with a carbon neutral parcel service to reduce our carbon footprint.
