About Izotropic Corporation

Izotropic Corporation is commercializing dedicatedbreast CT imaging technology for the earlier detection, diagnosis, andtreatment of breast cancers. Extensive preliminary studies have foundthat breast CT may be able to routinely detect small breast tumors inthe 3-5 mm size range. The median size of breast cancer found usingmammography is approximately 11 mm. Routine detection of 3 mm lesionswould result in 1.5 year earlier detection over mammography.

The initial indication for use for breast CT as adiagnostic device has been confirmed. Forthcoming business objectivesinclude identifying additional indications for use, development ofaccessories, and additional products, all aimed at making breast CT anindispensable tool for improving the outcomes of breast cancer.
