About us

  MobileODT is driven by a mission: to deliver affordable, practical healthcare innovation and make a difference in the world. Now. We do it through the creation of breakthrough optical diagnostic devices and software services focused on early cancer detection and, soon, a range of other medical purposes. We deliver it at a cost that enables rapid uptake and wide utilization everywhere, but particularly in low-resource settings, where the need is most acute and the impact can be immediate.﻿

DISRUPTING TO ADVANCE HEALTHCARE
MobileODT is blazing a path similar to disruptive technologies in other markets:
We leverage the ubiquity and native capability of smartphones to do something that’s never been done before, replacing complex and cost-prohibitive systems with simplicity and affordability. 
We create highly advanced optical technology components to turn the smartphone into a mobile, easy-to-use point-of-care tool to help detect cancer and capture a range of biomedical images for diagnostic and other analytical purposes.  
And we develop intuitive app-based programs to operate our devices and connect to a cloud-based software platform that enables exciting capabilities that could not be imagined just a few years ago — from immediate remote expert consultations to improved case management and, importantly, to easy integration with the range of emerging electronic health records programs.   

​FIRST FOCUS: CERVICAL CANCER SCREENING
MobileODT’s technology is a potentially game-changing solution to reduce cervical cancer, a global health priority that requires approximately 700 million screenings per year. Our Cervical Cancer Screening System has met with enthusiastic response in eight pilot markets around the world.
