IonPath is a Stanford University spin-out with a vision to transform clinical pathology and tumor imaging, a $10B+ market, with the company's novel, highly multi-parametric imaging technology, Multiplexed Ion Beam Imaging (MIBI). IonPath's MIBI is a step-change improvement over the current leading tumor imaging method, immunohistochemistry (IHC). MIBI enables researchers, pathologists, and clinicians to quantitatively analyze and visually display the complex interactions among cancer tumor cells, proteins, antibodies, T-cells, and other relevant features on cells' surfaces and interiors. Understanding these biological players and their interactions should substantially improve cancer research and drug discovery, produce novel diagnostics, and transform the study of disease mechanisms such as cancer ("pathology"). IonPath will develop and commercialize services, instruments, reagents, and ultimately diagnostic tests based on MIBI technology.
