    2. With the price increase from $182.5 to $187.5 mid-quarter, can you detail the expected impact on unit sales and how this might affect revenue stability in upcoming quarters?
    3. Considering SG&A expenses are projected to increase by 60% and R&D by 150% over last year, what specific initiatives are in place to maintain profitability while scaling clinical trials and expanding center activations?
    4. Since site activation for your Phase II trials can take between 6 to 12 months post-FDA clearance, what accelerated strategies are you implementing to reduce this lag and ensure timely patient enrollment?
    5. With European market challenges such as low reimbursement and pricing pressures limiting revenue contributions to roughly 1/7 of U.S. pricing, what detailed plans do you have to overcome these barriers and drive sustainable growth in Europe?
