Activity
The company is dedicated to developing innovative, low-cost medical diagnostic technologies, especially focused on the early detection of colorectal cancer using microwave-based endoscopic accessory devices.
History
MiWEndo Solutions was founded in 2019 as a spin-off of Pompeu Fabra University, Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, and the Catalan Institute for Research and Advanced Studies. It emerged from the collaboration between an electrical engineer and a gastroenterologist, combining expertise in microwave technology and gastroenterology to revolutionize colorectal cancer detection.
Product types
The company develops and markets an electromagnetic accessory for conventional colonoscopes that automates polyp detection, sounds an alarm upon detection, expands the field of view to 360°, and differentiates between benign and malignant tissue without changing current clinical practice. This device is the company's flagship product.
Mission
The company's mission is to bring innovative, compact, and low-cost technologies to practical diagnostics, with the goal of reducing the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer through early detection.
