Problem
Traditional histopathological imaging relies on complex, mechanically-intensive systems, hindering rapid diagnosis at the point of care. The need for standard hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining further delays immediate assessment and increases workflow complexity.
Solution
SurgiVance develops line-scanning, solid-state confocal microscopy (LSSSCM) for rapid, high-resolution histopathological imaging, eliminating the mechanical complexity of traditional systems. Their hardware achieves cellular resolution without delicate moving parts, enabling faster and easier manufacturing. Patented digital coloring software produces images mimicking the appearance of H&E staining, the standard for histopathology. This allows for immediate diagnosis at the point of care, improving the efficiency of pathology workflows. The technology aims to provide a "lab in a box" solution for surgical pathology, particularly in dermatology and specialty surgery.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes dermatologists, surgical specialists, and pathology labs seeking rapid and accurate margin status assessment and improved diagnostic workflows.
