Medic Vision Brain Technologies of Haifa, Israel, has raised $1 million in a financing round with private investors.
Founded in 2006, Medic Vision is developing a system to reduce ionizing radiation caused by CT scans by as much as 80%. The technology, called SafeCT, will enable the medical community to continue to benefit from the advantages of CT images while dramatically reducing the associated risks from harmful radiation, according to the firm. The system is being evaluated at the Rambam Medical Center in Haifa.
The financing will allow Medic Vision to seek regulatory clearance for SafeCT from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
