Project title: MEDICAL DEVICE COMBINING FUNCTIONAL AND CONVENTIONAL ULTRASOUND IMAGING
Company name : ULTRAVIEW LTD.
TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
Medical devices for Radiology,
Neurology, Dermatology, Ophthalmology
KEY WORDS
Ultrasound,
Opto-acoustics, Functional Imaging
PROJECT SUMMARY
ULTRAVIEW develops a device enabling the combination of two
complementary imaging modalities, 2D pulse echo ultrasound
imaging and Optoacoustic imaging. The device adds functional
capabilities to the anatomical information obtained by standard
2D pulse echo ultrasound.
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
* Excessive angiogenesis - It occurs in diseases such as: Cancer
(breast, thyroid), retinal diabetics, rheumatoid arthritis,
psoriasis, melanoma
* Treatment monitoring- Such as: Stroke treatment, Chemotherapy
* Blood oxygenation level - It is related to: Brain function,
Tumor malignancy
TARGET MARKET
The major markets are the radiology ultrasound, neurology
ultrasound and dermatology ultrasound users. These markets
constitute about 50% of the total ultrasound market.
ENTREPRENEURS
Dr. Semion Trebukov - Founder,
Specialist in the area of medical image processing and algorithm
development.

years of business and marketing leadership in technological
fields.
Dr. Abraham Bruck - Ph.D., Manager &
Project Leader, Physicist, specialist in ultrasound systems. 25
years of industrial experience in R&D of medical instruments.
PROJECT STATUS
The project has completed its second year of R&D. A laboratory
prototype has been built and feasibility has been proved using
tissue equivalent phantoms.
The technology is protected under PCT and pending US patent.
COOPERATION REQUIRED
Financial partners (Angels, VC etc.). Strategic partnership with
companies in the field.
