A new dimension to skin cancer diagnosis

The company was spun out from Institut d'Optique Graduate School, Palaiseau, France in 2014 by a team of photonics researchers. They have taken a patented technology with applications in biological and medical imaging and used it to create a new medical device for real-time diagnosis of lesions from all types of skin conditions, including skin cancer. The technology is a new advanced medical imaging system, which is protected by a suite of six patent families and other IP rights. It is currently making a high impact in over 40 centres around the world including onco-dermatology clinics. Close collaboration with key opinion leaders in the world's top dermatology centres is driving new developments to provide dermatologists with artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for diagnostic support.
