CelTivity Biopsy System

High resolution

imaging device for sub cellular-level biological tissue imaging

non-invasive & non destructive

real-time optical biopsy

FFOCT

(Full-Field Optical Coherence Tomography) produces images showing the tissue architecture without sample processing or staining

Dynamic cell imaging

produces images showing the intracellular activity data without sample processing or staining

Technology's immediate benefit

In the context of tissue imaging for cancer diagnosis, AQUYRE Biosciences  anticipates the following benefits:

the full-field OCT technology employed by the CelTivity is the sole technique to offer axial resolution (i.e. in the vertical, z-axis) of 1 µm, which gives the best image clarity and precision.

(rapidity of diagnosis): the technology currently enables image capture on a 1 cm² region of tissue in 1 minute, thereby enabling immediate quality control of biopsies.

in the event of complex biopsies that require hospitalization and/or anesthesia.

that allows reuse of the biopsy: no need for dyes, contrast agents or tissue freezing.

Analysis can be carried out remotely

AQUYRE Biosciences products can be employed directly. No calibration, no complex set-up procedure is necessary. User training is completed in under half a day.
