Imagion Biosystems, Inc Information

Imagion Biosystems is dedicated to providing tools to find and eliminate cancer. We are a multidisciplinary team with expertise in the physics of magnetic fields and nanotechnology and the medical application of these fields. Our focus is in the rapidly emerging field of nanobiotechnology with an emphasis on the early detection and localization of cancer and other human diseases. Our technologies also hold the promise of providing image-guided therapy for the treatment of these diseases, as well as providing new methods for therapeutic intervention. Our proprietary technologies and methods employ magnetic nanoparticles targeted towards cells associated with cancer and other diseases and provide the ability to detect these cells using highly sensitive magnetic sensors. These methods have numerous preclinical and clinical applications. Preclinical research projects have focused on the early detection of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer.
