The Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS), the European Commission’s primary source of results from the projects funded by the EU’s framework programmes for research and innovation featured EUPHORIA news on June 23rd, 2021. The mission of CORDIS is to bring research results to professionals in the field to foster open science, create innovative products and services and stimulate growth across Europe.
The CORDIS announcement reads: “German medical technology manufacturer iThera Medical’s imaging system has been awarded a CE mark, confirming that the product conforms with European health, safety and environmental protection standards. The system in question uses a new imaging modality named multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT). As such, it’s called the MSOT Acuity Echo. The non-invasive MSOT Acuity Echo device combines lasers and ultrasound and has the potential to provide better monitoring of IBD than current imaging systems. The device’s journey to CE certification was supported by the EU-funded EUPHORIA project that has focused on optimising the technology and testing the device as a clinical tool for non-invasively monitoring IBD.”
