MedTrace is striving to minimize diagnostic uncertainty through better perfusion imaging. Perfusion imaging provides medical professionals with a functional understanding of the organs blood supply inside the patient. MedTrace is developing a solution that will help healthcare providers diagnose patients more accurately and quickly. Our solution allows for absolute blood flow quantification based upon the PET tracer 15O-water, which has long been acknowledged as the gold standard tracer for non-invasive blood flow quantification. Our innovative solution is intended to making 15O-water practically available right next to the PET scanner connected to an onsite cyclotron, with a software package to quantify the myocardial blood flow and perfusion. IMPORTANT NOTICE: MedTrace’s products are not currently cleared for routine use in any markets, including both the US and Europe. In the US, 15O-water is currently under investigation as an investigational drug in a Phase 3 clinical trial. In Europe, its use is in compliance with approvals granted by national drug authorities, in accordance with the specific legislation of each member state.
