The problem we solve: Healthcare/medicine is practiced in reaction to a recent injury or presentation of a longer term condition or disease. Today imaging is used after a Physical Exam by a physician, as a confirmation of initial findings. Imaging is only applied to a very specific anatomy or area of interest based on a potential diagnosis.
About our solution: Personalized digital physical exam to help predict disease risks, by directly assessing the vital organs & tissues from a whole body perspective,utilizing: non-invasive medical imaging to acquire data,automation algorithms to quantify images, and Artificial Intelligence to develop predictive analytics for improved health. SAAS platform enables access to the latest imaging technology, and support for legacy scanners,while improving accuracy,precision,and standardization across imaging facilities.
Progress to date:Protocols are complete & ready to be installed on client scanners, while cloud analytics platform is ready to perform processing & provide deliverables/reports.
Platform comprised of different backend processing techniques. Client facing screens are for cloud based data uploading of imaging data. Library of disease focused risk prediction models under development & will grow with each scan prospective scan that is acquired and processed, along with any retrospective datasets that are analyzed.

Personalized digital physical exam to help predict disease risks, by directly assessing the vital organs & tissues from a whole body perspective,utilizing: non-invasive medical imaging to acquire data,automation algorithms to quantify images, and Artificial Intelligence to develop predictive analytics for improved health.
SAAS platform enables access to the latest imaging technology, and support for legacy scanners,while improving accuracy,precision,and standardization across imaging facilities.
Healthcare/medicine is practiced in reaction to a recent injury or presentation of a longer term condition or disease.
Imaging is currently used after a Physical Exam by a physician, as a confirmation of initial findings. Imaging is only applied to a very specific anatomy or area of interest based on a potential diagnosis.
With over 20 years of experience managing global multicenter clinical trials for academic, biotech, pharma companies, we have overseen the evaluation/selection, installation/training, acquisition/quality control, and conduct/outcomes, of quantitative imaging technologies.
Majority of healthcare solutions fall under a reactive model by providing a diagnosis and then treatment. To solve the problem of diagnosing a patient after the onset of a medical condition requires an earlier stage of intervention to better treat, reverse, or inhibit a disease. In order to achieve this, solutions need to exist in a proactive model that identify, measure, and monitor applicable biomarkers that give patients a window of opportunity to prevent disease prior to biological onset.
For Investors
We are addressing a combined market of $256B
b) these markets include the latest technical advances that are changing the future of healthcare and medicine
c) Combined market of $256B comprised of:
BIOMARKERS $97B (2020)
PRECISION MEDICINE $87B (2023)
MEDICAL IMAGING $46B (2022)
HEALTHCARE ANALYTICS $19B (2020)
MRI SYSTEMS $7B (2020)
Key Milestones Achieved and Planned
By end of Q1 2018 we would have done the following-
Initiated pilot/validation study with key opinion leader/institution
Secured initial client/customer (either biotech/pharma/CRO or health/wellness facility)
Further development of platform
We plan to do the following starting in Q3 2018

Our Competitive Advantages
Competitive Advantage- Unique technical expertise in installing & managing advanced imaging technologies to provide a quantitative approach that delivers insights from combined organ & tissue interaction. Unique market insight from experience/expertise evaluating imaging techniques and training hundreds of imaging facilities.
Novelty of technology- Typical imaging companies develop individual techniques that only focus on a single organ or tissue, while we are focused on providing a comprehensive solution beyond what any one single provider could offer.
No new stake holders.
Barriers to Entry
We currently hold an exclusive, worldwide, all domains of practice license for an algorithm to map scar tissue in the heart. We will be developing new IP based off of this core technology, as well as the integration of the different imaging technologies that we are and will be working with.
Traction, Funding and Partners
Current customer is IPMC in South Korea. 3 projects: 100 participants over a period of 1 year, offered for the residents of Paju city, supported by the Korean government.
Project 2: offer annual digital physical examination to employees of 2 large corporate customers
