Applied Visual Sciences launches TB diagnostic test in India

Signature Mapping Medical Sciences, a subsidiary of Applied Visual Sciences (APVS) healthcare, has commenced TBDxV product sales and marketing initiatives in India.

TBDxV provides automated computer-aided analysis for a clinician; specifically displaying acid-fast tuberculosis (TB) bacteria using Signature Mapping’s advanced computer vision and pattern recognition technologies.

Signature Mapping TBDxV software integrates APVS’ patented visualization algorithms and processes with existing analog bright-field microscopes to highlight tuberculosis bacilli in sputum slides.

The images which are are treated as digital ‘fields of view (FOV) are displayed on the workstation monitor.

The technician will input the count of bacilli for each FOVestablishing a ‘load’ count for each specimen; accumulate and tally the data; and output a report on the findings including the current severity.
