G-ray
G-ray Medical Sàrl is developing a breakthrough X-ray detector platform, combining the advantages of advanced technology for absorber fabrication, smart electronics and state-of-the-art bonding processes making it a key enabling device for improved diagnostics, functional imaging and reduction of absorbed radiation doses.
Different studies have already demonstrated that efficient direct conversion of photons into electrons are important in the delivery of much safer medical imaging procedures.
Through collaboration with research organization (EMPA, ETHZ, CSEM, CERN) and clinical partnerships, G-Ray has access to Swiss-based world-class competences. A flexible organization using highly qualified partners will help G-ray to achieve the development and qualification phases in a short period of time.
The STI-support will contribute to reach the following objectives:
- New patent filling
- Design equipment for absorber fabrication
- Complete integration plan
- Design clean room
The funding of the STI (approved 2014) will enable us to reduce the project lead-time by 4 months.
At the request of the borrower STI ended the partnership in 2016.
