Providence Medical Technology, an innovator in tissue-sparing, cervical-fusion technology, today announced the closing of $10.5 million in new equity financing for the company. The proceeds will be used to further commercialize and expand its portfolio of cervical-fusion technology.

Providence's family of cervical-fusion products now includes DTRAX Spinal Systems, CAVUX Cervical Cages, ALLY Screw Systems, and BIOLOGIX Allograft Bone. The Company's cervical-fusion products are provided in sterile packaging for single use and fill critical gaps in the continuum of cervical spine care.
