It is standard clinical practice in most diabetic podiatry clinics to assess wounds by hand measuring the width, length and depth or tracing the periphery, combined with the use of digital photography. This area of medicine still relies heavily upon subjective clinical experience and there is a strong and recognised need for robust tools to quantify and monitor wounds for treatment and examination.

Eykona's wound imaging product will provide clinicians with superior tools to record, diagnose and monitor patients. There are significant long-term transformative benefits in moving to a more objective, evidence-based approach to wound characterisation. The product will support the entire wound management pipeline, including diagnosis, monitoring, remote and tele-medicine in bringing best clinical expertise to each patient, and help reduce costs. Our system may also assist the reimbursement process in the USA by facilitating documentation and record-keeping.
