NIH awards
QT Imaging over
$15M (over multiple grants)
for new women’s
imaging solution

The National Cancer Institute, part of The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded grants of over $15 million to fund the development of this technology and our clinical trials.

FDA grants 510(k) clearance for the QT scanner

QTI’s Breast Acoustic CT Scanner has received FDA 510(k) marketing clearance for use as an ultrasonic imaging system of a patient's breast. The device is not intended to be used as a replacement for screening mammography.

The clearest picture is our greatest asset

Dense breasts are common. In fact, about 50% of women in the US and more than 75% of women in Asia have dense breasts. With images that show clear information about breast tissue, our goal is to identify what is benign, and what’s problematic.
