Product Overview - Creating cutting edge medical devices, Mediscience Technology is a multifacited medical research and development company combining several fields of science and medicine.
Three prototype products employing the company's technology for cancer diagnosis have been developed. They include the cancer detection (CD) CD Scan, CD Ratiometer, and CD Map.
Using lamp light, these devices provide a broad spectrum of safe, scanning excitation light wavelengths to ensure that the appropriate target tissue molecules fluoresce sufficiently to provide maximum diagnostic sensitivity. A fiberoptic probe is attached to each device: the transmission of the optical excitation signal to retrieve the native fluorescence response.
We believe that our CD instruments embody extensive versatility and a broad range of potential alternative applications depending on the preferred configuration of the fiberoptic probe.
For example, the fiberoptic probe can be configured as a convenient hand held probe for easy-to-access areas such as the oral cavity or the skin surface. The optical fiber can be fed down the working channel of:
rigid or flexible endoscopesfor assessment of the upper or lower GI tract
cystoscopes for study of the urinary tract
colposcopes for gynecological evaluation
laparoscopes for evaluation of internal organs
core biopsy needles to optically assess breast tumors or other deep tissue tumors, such as sometimes occur in the pancreas, liver or prostate.
