Portable Breast Cancer Screening Device

Category: Diagnostic Medical Device

Client Type: Healthcare Innovation Company (Anonymized)

Geography: Emerging & Regulated Markets

Project Impact

Enabled development of a portable, cost-efficient breast cancer screening device designed for deployment in outreach programs and semi-clinical environments.

Client Challenge

The client required a portable, cost-efficient diagnostic screening device that could operate in low-resource and semi-clinical environments without compromising data reliability or regulatory readiness. Existing solutions were bulky, expensive, and not scalable for wide deployment.

369 Innovations’ Role

369 Innovations acted as the end-to-end R&D and industrialization partner, taking ownership of the device from concept development to manufacturing handover.
