Leading the Revolution in Surgical Imaging
Founded in September 2008, Diagnostic Photonics is developing advanced imaging technology to assist clinicians in the evaluation of diseased tissue during surgery. The company's breakthrough medical imaging originated in the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the University of Illinois, an interdisciplinary research institute devoted to leading-edge research. The company is funded by IllinoisVentures.

Technology
Diagnostic Photonics (DxP) has a proprietary imaging technology to help clinicians evaluate diseased tissue during surgery. DxP enables clinicians to see tissue at the microscopic level and provides crucial histological insight at the moment it is most needed.
The company's core technology, called interferometric synthetic aperture microscopy (ISAM), uses reflected light and a novel method of image reconstruction to create an unprecedented view of cellular tissue structure.
ISAM solves several long-standing problems with other imaging approaches such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and provides an imaging solution that is well suited for todays cost-constrained, busy surgical environment.
