Plasma-based Precision Medicine in Neurology with Focused Ultrasound
The blood-brain barrier prevents the use of plasma-based liquid biopsy in brain diseases. Focused ultrasound can temporarily increase the permeability of the BBB, enabling liquid biopsy by letting disease biomarkers enter the circulatory system from the brain. Blood can be collected from the arm, and the biomarkers can be analyzed.
Clinical Dx Showcase:
Cordance Medical
Cordance Medical is developing a patient-friendly, noninvasive, focused ultrasound device that can temporarily and safely open the blood-brain barrier. The device is designed to be portable, economical, and widely deployable in space-constrained environments like infusion centers and community clinics.
Session Abstract – PMWC 2025 Silicon Valley
The PMWC 2025 Data Applications in Clinical Diagnostics Showcase will provide a 15-30 minute time slot for selected organizations, including commercial companies, clinical testing labs, and medical research institutions, to present their latest advancements, insights, applications, and technologies to an audience of clinicians, leading investigators, academic institutions, pharma and biotech, investors, and potential clients. We will learn about new technologies and findings that promise expedited, cost-effective, and accurate clinical diagnosis for early disease detection, treatment decisions, and disease prevention.
