Spectral AI Announces New US Government Contract to Further Accelerate the Development of the Handheld Version of DeepView™ Wound Imaging System
In the past six months, the Company has announced over $149 million of non-dilutive financing from the US Government for the DeepView™ Wound Imaging System
DALLAS, March 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spectral AI, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDAI) (“Spectral AI” or the “Company”), an artificial intelligence (AI) company focused on medical diagnostics for faster and more accurate treatment decisions in wound care, today announced a new contract with the Defense Health Agency (DHA) and the US Army Medical Material Development Activity (USAMMDA) that provides significant additional support for the development of the handheld version of DeepView™ Wound Imaging System called DeepView SnapShot® M.
This newly secured contract is valued at over $500,000 and will build on the previous awards from other U.S. Government Agencies focused on advancing the handheld, DeepView Snapshot® M, that bring this total for just the DeepView SnapShot® M to greater than $6 million. The ultimate goal of the contract and this targeted non-dilutive funding is to optimize the functionality and size of the device and to ensure its combat readiness. These optimizations will, in turn, increase the device’s potential for a portable, handheld version for home health care and related invaluable assistance to medical professionals in many settings.
“Spectral AI is proud to partner with DHA and the USAMMDA on this crucial initiative. This award further validates Spectral AI’s technology and the importance of a battlefield burn solution we are focusing on,” stated Pete Carlson, CEO of Spectral AI. “We firmly believe that this collaboration will make a profound impact, as the miniaturization of medical devices is essential for introducing innovative medical care to a wider range of clinical settings and patients. This development reaffirms Spectral AI’s dedication to shaping the future of accessible medical care and solidifies its position as a trailblazer in AI-driven healthcare innovation.”
The Company has previously announced other significant non-dilutive financial support from the US Government that with this award announced today, now totals over $250 million, including $150 million awarded in the last six months.
