As next regulatory steps, Median Technologies is preparing several Q-submissions for Q2, 2022.

"This first regulatory submission marks the beginning of our interactions with the FDA. The FDA’s feedback will help us determine the shortest and most efficient way to bring our product onto the US healthcare market", Fredrik Brag, CEO and founder of Median Technologies said. "Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer, and being able to detect it very early is of critical importance for patients. Our innovative iBiopsy AI/ML-based technology could have a huge impact on saving patients’ lives by identifying lung cancer onsets at their earliest stage, and could significantly improve the accuracy, consistency, and adoption of lung cancer screening programs worldwide".
