Full description:
ANOCA is caused by small vessels in the heart not functioning properly. Current tools are difficult for clinicians to use and require multiple steps. We have developed iKOr system which is simple to use and fits into the existing workflow. For UK adoption, we must validate its accuracy against current standards of care. We are submitting this for UK grant funding. It is not a confirmed project but if successful, a great opportunity. We are looking for a PPI lead with lived experience of ANOCA

Organisation
Echopoint Medical
Echopoint Medical are a London based start up who spun out of UCL in 2019. Since then, we have been developing the iKOr system - a microcatheter that can diagnose diseases in the small vessels of the heart. We have a small team of 10 people who are all dedicated to the mission of improving cardiovascular diagnosis for patients. We work with existing patient groups in this field, and we believe getting a patients perspective is vital to a successful project.
