Opsens Inc is a Quebec‐based technology company specializing in the design, development and commercialization of fiber optic sensing solutions for both medical and industrial markets. The company’s core expertise lies in precision measurement systems that leverage fiber optics to deliver high‐accuracy pressure and temperature readings in real time. Opsens operates through two segments: medical devices, which focus on cardiovascular diagnostic tools, and industrial sensors, which serve sectors such as oil and gas, power generation and manufacturing.
In its medical division, Opsens offers a fiber optic pressure guidewire system designed to measure fractional flow reserve (FFR) during cardiac catheterization procedures. This technology provides interventional cardiologists with a safe and radiation‐free method for assessing blood flow and pressure gradients across coronary lesions. The platform is compatible with standard catheterization lab workflows and is marketed under the Opsens Coronary FFR brand.
On the industrial side, Opsens develops robust fiber optic sensors capable of withstanding harsh environments and extreme temperatures. These sensors are deployed in applications ranging from downhole monitoring in oil wells to real‐time temperature mapping in power plant boilers. Built to international standards, Opsens’ industrial solutions are noted for their long‐term stability, resistance to electromagnetic interference and minimal maintenance requirements.
Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Quebec City, Opsens has grown from a research‐driven start-up into a publicly traded corporation serving customers across North America, Europe and Asia. The company’s management team combines expertise in photonics, medical device regulation and industrial instrumentation, positioning Opsens to capitalize on ongoing advancements in fiber optic sensing technology.
