The system, an intra-operative tissue assessment tool for early-stage breast cancer surgery, is intended to enable real-time detection of cancer at or near the surface of excised tissue specimens during breast cancer surgery. MarginProbe uses electromagnetic “signatures” to identify healthy and cancerous tissue during lumpectomy.

 

“The MarginProbe system was developed to address one of the longest standing unmet medical needs in the breast cancer surgical community,” said Daniel Levangie, CEO of Dune Medical Devices, in the release. “We have received resounding support from clinicians, advocacy organizations and patients alike, who have recognized the value of MarginProbe and intra-operative, real-time detection of cancer on the margin to potentially improve patient outcomes.”

 

Dune Medical Devices has offices in the United States, Israel and Switzerland.
