Sense -Non-Invasive Brain Scanners
Sense is developing non-invasive brain scanners that enable faster detection and triage, and continuous monitoring of brain injury, to improve patient outcomes.
- 9 patients enrolled
- 600 hours of monitoring time
- 3600 SENSE scans performed
-
2 exhibited > 3mL expansion of ICH
-
7 no expansion
100% correspondence of SENSE with CT results at 12 hours. No false positives/no false negatives.
- 5 LVO*, 5 non LVO*, 5 ICH**
- Study conducted at Good Samaritan Hospital and UC
- 5 LVO*(completed)
- 5 non-LVO* completed
-
5 ICH** completed
**Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)
Sense is developing non-invasive headsets which contain nine antennae. These antennae alternate transmit and receive a safe, low-power radio frequency (RF) pulse across the patient’s brain.
Healthy brain tissues have unique electrical properties that alter the RF wave as it passes through the tissue. Similarly, hemorrhages and ischemic tissue cause distinctive changes to the RF signal.
A proprietary algorithm classifies stroke by subtype: intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), large vessel occlusion (LVO) or non-LVO
- Single scan in 2.5 seconds
- 360 data points per scan
- Analyzes the entire cranial vault
