Company profile
SamanTree Medical SA
SamanTree Technologies AG is a digital microscopy company (EPFL spin-off), with the mission to enable digital in-vivo histology for complete, surgical tumor removal. Early-stage cancer diagnosis and subsequent complete surgical resection compose the therapy with highest chances for complete cure. However, cancer cells missed during surgical excisions result in recurrence of the tumor and reoperation rates of 20-40%. Enabling efficient point-of-care digital pathology, SamanTree’s surgical microscopes, with the largest field of view on the planet, will substitute the “frozen section analysis”, and consequently improve surgical workflow, treatment decisions and resection accuracy, while reducing re-operation rates and overall cost of procedures.
