Lumicell is a privately held company focused on innovative fluorescence-guided technologies for cancer surgery with the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. The company’s first product is the Lumicell Direct Visualization System, designed to provide real-time illumination of cancerous tissue within the breast cavity during the initial lumpectomy, potentially reducing repeat surgeries. Lumicell’s proprietary, pan-oncologic optical imaging agent is also being explored across a wide variety of solid tumor indications. The company aims to enhance the standard of care treatment by guiding the resection of additional cancer that may have otherwise been left behind.
