About Imagin Medical

Imagin Medical casts itself as a surgical imaging company focused on establishing new standards of care in the treatment of cancer. The company has developed the i/Blue system with a view of improving a surgeon’s ability to visualize cancerous cells. The system produces high-quality images compared to current methods in use.

“We are very pleased that the i/Blue Imaging System’s Functional Unit is performing as intended. We are currently conducting focus groups with urologists to optimize the software user interface and to meet precise functionality requirements,” said Jim Hutchens, Imagin’s President, and CEO.

According to the CEO, I/Blue system has the potential to enhance blue light cystoscopy as a mainstream standard of care for bladder cancer. The executive expects the groundbreaking technology to drive significant shareholder value going forward.Imagin medical has already met with the Food and Drug Administration as it seeks to get a head start on the regulatory pathway for its revolutionary imaging system. The company is planning to use feedback from the agency to refine its regulatory strategy as it eyes approval in the near future.In the final quarter of 2018, Imagin Medical received $1 million from an exercise of warrants. With the new finances, the company remains well funded to oversee the development of the i/Blue system as it also eyes regulatory approval.

“We are excited to see the real promise of Imagin’s ground-breaking technology start to emerge and believe that it will drive significant value for our shareholders as we progress,” said Mr. Hutchens.
