CV Ingenuity, a privately-held medical device company, has closed a $16 million Series B round of financing led by New Enterprise Associates. Existing investors BioStar Ventures, Synergy Ventures and Western Technology also participated in the round. CV Ingenuity, which is focused on the development of a drug-eluting balloon platform technology that aims to treat peripheral artery disease while also working to prevent restenosis, will use this latest round of funding to accelerate product development and expand their leadership team.

Interrad Medical has raised approximately $10 million in its Series C financing. The funding was raised through a private placement by RBC Wealth Management Group in collaboration with RBC Capital Markets. RBC financial advisors and Interrad executives worked together to raise the funds exclusively from high net worth angel investors. The funds, the company says, will be used to support commercialization and the further development of their SecurAcath device, the only catheter securement device that does not require sutures or adhesives, enabling fast, safe, and continuous securement.

Limestone Fund and TriStar Technology Ventures have formed Diagnovus, LLC, which will be headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. As part of its creation, TriStar and Limestone completed a seed financing round for the company.
