Company Description  

At Aquyre Biosciences Inc. (Cambridge, MA) our mission is to become the standard of care for tissue adequacy assessment. What Makes Aquyre Biosciences Different? Our technology combines two unique and proprietary technologies in one exam, offering a non-invasive, non-destructive, intra-procedural tissue adequacy assessment, in freshly excised tissue, within 2 minutes. Our technologies include Full-Field Optical Coherence Tomography (FFOCT) which offers an en-face (transverse), high resolution, 3D image of biopsy tissue micro-architecture, at a resolution of 1μm. FFOCT also allows for depth exploration at different focal planes, without compromising 1μm resolution. The second technology, Dynamic Cell Imaging™ (DCI) is used to enhance the cellular contrast by capturing the residual microscopic intracellular activity and behaviors in freshly excised tissue, without staining or destroying the tissue.
