About

Seeing lymph nodes like never before. Cancer care like never before. Born from pioneering research at MIT, Cision Vision, is at the forefront of revolutionizing medical imaging. Our first commercial product enhances lymph node identification in surgical specimens, increasing retrieval rates by 53-90% and improving cancer diagnoses in 5% of cases. Our second generation product empowers surgeons with real-time visualization of critical structures beyond lymphatics during both open and minimally invasive procedures. Harnessing shortwave infrared imaging, our technology delivers exceptional clarity without contrasting agents or radiation. Follow us on LinkedIn to stay updated on our latest developments and witness how our transformative technology is shaping the future of healthcare.
