Optikos is working with Lumicell on the optical-mechanical design and testing of a handheld imaging system that helps improve patient outcomes by identifying cancer cells “left behind on tumor cavity walls.”

The company’s lead product, the Lumicell System “features an investigational optical agent and a handheld device that enable cancer surgeons to see and remove cancer cells in real-time during operations.” Read more about Lumicell’s exciting developments in treating cancer and other diseased tissues on their website or in this recent Time Magazine article.
