Description:

Over 7 million Americans need biopsy procedures every year, costing over $8 billion; 20% of procedures fail to render an accurate diagnosis. Over 1 million patients have to go through costly, painful repeat biopsy procedures. Instapath makes digital microscopic imaging devices that improve rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of biopsies, reducing the need for repeat procedures and increasing operating room capacity and hospital revenue.
