Problem
Current endoscopes often lack the necessary miniaturization and resolution for effective imaging and stimulation within deep tissue structures, particularly in the brain. This limitation hinders accurate diagnosis and precise treatment of various neurological conditions.
Solution
Modendo develops ultrathin fiber optic endomicroscopes designed to access and visualize previously inaccessible regions of the body. Their technology utilizes light propagation within ultrathin fibers to enable high-resolution optical imaging and photo-stimulation deep within tissue. The endomicroscopes offer a less invasive method for optical imaging, improving the ability to diagnose and treat neurological conditions.
Target Audience
The primary customers are researchers and medical professionals in the fields of neuroscience and neurology who require high-resolution imaging and stimulation tools for studying and treating the brain and other tissues.
