Please try againKent Imaging’s SnapshotNIR and SnapshotGLO work together to reveal two key barriers to repair—low tissue oxygenation and elevated bacterial bioburden. With dual imaging insights, clinicians gain clarity, confidence, and speed in decision-making, supporting earlier, more targeted interventions that optimize treatment and reduce delays.SnapshotNIR is non-invasive, cost effective, and measures and reports approximate values of tissue oxygen saturation (StO2), relative oxyhemoglobin, relative deoxyhemoglobin in superficial tissue. SnapshotGLO is an adjunctive tool that uses ultraviolet light via a handheld portable device to provide users with a visual of elevated bacterial loads in a wound by detecting fluorescence emitted from bacteria at loads greater than 10⁴ CFU/g*.“The strongest clinical decisions begin with a clearer understanding of what is happening beneath and around a wound,” said Pierre Lemire, CEO of Kent Imaging. “Partnering with EmeraNova allows us to pair advanced imaging insights with a broader tissue restoration strategy, helping clinicians connect assessment to next steps with greater confidence.”The collaboration reflects EmeraNova’s continued strategy of building one of the industry’s most comprehensive tissue restoration toolboxes through partnerships with companies developing advanced regenerative, imaging and therapeutic technologies. Through its commercialization network, EmeraNova will support broader adoption of Kent Imaging’s technologies across care settings nationwide.For more information on EmeraNova’s toolbox of tissue restoration products, visit emeranova.com.EmeraNova™ is a leading medical technology company advancing tissue restoration across healing phases, care settings, and specialties by building a global platform that identifies promising technologies from around the world and accelerates their path into clinical practice.
