XEOS wants to tackle the limitations of today’s available imaging techniques applied in surgical oncology, by using the transformative power of molecular Imaging intra-operatively. The AURA 10 is the first-ever PET-CT specimen imager for the operating room, offering surgeons and imaging specialists the sensitivity of PET imaging at submillimeter spatial resolution. Thanks to the AURA 10 mobile scanner, a specimen does no longer need to be transported to the radiology or pathology department during surgery. High-quality specimen images can now be obtained in the OR within 10 minutes after excision. Founded in 2019 in Ghent, Belgium, XEOS is an expert in specimen imaging and focuses on improving outcomes in surgical oncology through innovations in intraoperative imaging. The XEOS team is passionate about expanding the use of molecular imaging to optimize clinical workflows and improve patient outcomes.
