NanoEcho’s CEO, Linda Persson, together with senior software developer Martin Larsson, pitched to an expert panel appointed by Region Skåne with the aim of securing a development grant of SEK 250,000. We are now very pleased and proud to share the news that NanoEcho has been awarded the grant, which will be used to adapt NanoEcho’s algorithm for clinical settings. The grant from Region Skåne is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.
“Thanks to the clinical data we now have access to, we can make important adjustments that strengthen our system for use in healthcare,” says Linda Persson, CEO of NanoEcho.
NanoEcho’s diagnostic system combines advanced ultrasound technology with iron oxide-based nanoparticles, which are set in motion by a magnetic field. The algorithm enables real-time imaging of the nanoparticles’ movements, with the aim of distinguishing between healthy and diseased tissue in rectal cancer.
