ViBo Health provides an early warning system for detecting preventable disease with DigiScan™, an easy-to-use, accurate 10-second finger scanner.

Market:

Diabetes is one of the most pervasive and expensive diseases in the world. One in three Americans have prediabetes, yet 80% don’t know they have it. The cost of allowing prediabetes to go undetected and develop into Type 2 diabetes is enormous. In the U.S., $1 in every $4 spent on healthcare is for diabetes care. Employers pay $8,000 per year for each employee with diabetes. Preventing diabetes with early detection provides an ROI over 10 years of $55,000 per employee.

Technology:

DigiScan™, ViBo Health’s system under development, will transform early detection of prediabetes and disrupt the current diagnosis model, which misses 80% of cases. The tabletop scanner will be installed where consumers already go: high-traffic locations such as pharmacies, gyms, university campuses and workplaces. The platform uses a combination of magnetic resonance spectroscopy and predictive algorithms to measure and map a customer’s health, providing dynamic, actionable recommendations.

Advantages:

  • Accurate: detects multiple biomarkers
  • Accessible: Available in easy-to-access locations
  • User-friendly: No need for specialists
  • Quick: 10-second finger scan
  • Inexpensive: No cost to user

Development Stage:

  • Prototype
