Cost of revenues
−Removed: The decrease in cost of revenues of approximately $131 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was due to the cost of sales of the VIVO System, as a result of the Merger that took place in January 2023, which were substantially lower than the cost of revenues for the Ra Medical legacy products during the comparable prior year periods, which legacy products have been discontinued.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

+Added: The remaining balance of the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.7 million relates to other consulting services as a result of internalizing certain services, investor relations and SEC fees due to fewer stockholder meetings in 2024 relative to 2023, and insurance expense due to lower insurance premiums in 2024 relative to 2023.
