From Light to Insight: Imaging System Prototyping for MedTech Startups

Description

Bringing a MedTech imaging device from concept to clinic is a complex journey—Optikos and Lumicell are here to help streamline the path. 

In this joint webinar, we’ll explore what startups need to know about lens selection, including image quality metrics such as Modulation Transfer Function (MTF), Field of View (FOV), and optical aberrations—and why these factors matter for clinical performance. 

Learn how to accelerate development with fast, effective prototyping strategies that support early proof-of-concept and clinical trial readiness. Lumicell will share insights from their own development experience, offering real-world examples of how rapid iteration and expert optical design can drive innovation in medical imaging. 

Whether you're refining your prototype or preparing for trials, this session provides valuable guidance to move your technology forward—faster.
