In this article you will get to know 7 startups who have huge impacts on our life, these startups built a revolutionary product in the medical imaging field.
Medical imaging is a computer vision sub-field, that get more and more attraction in the last years, due to it importance role in our life, as human beings.
NanoX Medical
Nanox Medical researches and develops breakthrough X-ray technology to generate unique monochromatic X-rays with very high fluency. Through decades of research lead by distinguished physicist CG Wang, we invented X-ray generators that form broad-angled uniform X-ray cone beams with high quantum efficiency.
These X-ray beams can induce shell ionization and produce Mega Gray Auger electrons in a dimension of a few nanometers. These unique features empower us to develop multiple groundbreaking applications in the area of medical diagnosis and treatment. We are primarily focusing on Mammography, Sepsis Diagnosis, Molecular Cancer Therapy and Alzheimer's Disease. Our technology can be easily extended to other imaging and tumor treatment applications.
VoxelCloud
Founded in early 2016, VoxelCloud offers automated medical image analysis algorithms and end-to-end solutions to help doctors make clinical decisions in a more accurate, accessible, and efficient way. VoxelCloud has an office in Los Angeles, USA. Until October 2017, VoxleCloud has raised $28.5M from investors such as Sequoia Capital, Tencent, etc.
VoxelCloud focuses on next-generation medical artificial intelligence and cloud computing. At VoxelCloud, we believe technology will allow millions of people to access high quality medical care, regardless of geographical and economical barriers. Our current solutions cover lung cancer, retinal diseases, and coronary heart diseas
Aidoc
Aidoc innovate to serve real physician needs and to create a measured impact on the imaging workflow. We believe that technology should serve medicine by empowering physicians and helping them to be more effective and efficient.
Viz.ai
Viz.ai was inspired by a patient who underwent a successful brain surgery and yet died because the surgery came too late. Systemic – but preventable – process delays had undermined the work of her care team.
Frustrated by the unnecessary delays that had cost his patient her life, neurosurgeon Dr. Chris Mansi committed to finding a better way. At Stanford Business School, Dr. Mansi joined forces with machine learning post-doc Dr. David Golan and together they founded Viz.ai with a goal of using artificial intelligence to make healthcare work faster and smarter. Not just to change it – but to radically transform it.
eXo
Exo (pronounced “Echo”) is pioneering a high-performance handheld ultrasound platform and AI for imaging and therapeutic applications. Exo is committed to delivering affordable and easy-to-use medical imaging to healthcare professionals around the world. By delivering easy-to-use, high quality medical imaging, Exo will empower healthcare professionals to make critical, real-time decisions that improve patient outcomes. bringing diagnostic-grade medical imaging to the pocket of every caregiver and clinician worldwide.
The Exo ultrasound platform combines advances in nano-materials, novel sensor technologies, advanced signal processing and computation with the economies of scale of semiconductor manufacturing to dramatically reduce the cost of imaging.
Come join us on this exciting journey to reinvent ultrasound and develop technologies that will transform medical imaging around the world.
NovaSignal
NovaSignal was founded in 2013 with the sole mission of providing greater access to critical data needed by physicians to improve the lives of their patients. Co-Founder Dr. Robert Hamilton was pursuing his Ph.D. in the Department of Neurosurgery at UCLA and it was here that he developed NovaSignal’s core technology that is in use by physicians across the world today.
Robert worked daily in the neurocritical care unit, and conducted international research in Haiti, China, and Malawi where access to medical technology was limited. It was these combined experiences that inspired him to start NovaSignal, and after he was introduced to MBA students Dan Hanchey and Leo Petrossian the NovaSignal story began!
Arterys
The Arterys mission is to transform healthcare by reducing subjectivity and variability in clinical diagnosis. Our dream is to bring data-driven medicine to every patient, regardless of where they live. As long as you have access to the web, you have access to Arterys.
Medicine should be powered by data.
Physicians should be empowered with every piece of information they need to make the best possible diagnosis and treatment decisions.
Every patient should benefit from the Arterys technology. Regardless of where they live or how they live.
This can be a new era of open research based on millions of multi-modal patient studies.
Healthcare’s current technology infrastructure is not capable of getting medicine where it needs to go.
