EMVision’s First Responder proof-of-concept brain scanner tested in remote settings
ASX-listed brain scanner company EMVision has announced that its First Responder Proof-of-Concept (PoC) device has been put through a series of volunteer scans in remote settings, in collaboration with the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) and the Australian Stroke Alliance.
In a statement on Wednesday, the company shared that RFDS staff had received preliminary training for using the device, which is being developed to assess both stroke and the type of stroke a patient might be suffering.
According to EMVision, scans were completed and the device displayed “an ability to withstand the physical stress, environmental conditions and operational constraints unique to aeromedical retrieval”.
