Galvanostatic tissue sensing for cancer detection

We are pioneering work in electro-chemical sensing for tissue assessment. The ultimate goal is to provide new sensing modalities which can discriminate between diseased (cancerous) and healthy tissues, both intra-operatively and post-operatively, to aid the surgeon in obtaining the best clinical outcome for the patient.
