Our mission is an easy, non-invasive early detection of diseases
CreaxHealth has an ambition to accelerate the development and market access of novel non-invasive home-community prediagnostics, which can have an impact on our personal quality of life.
Today personal health data is still mainly targeted to fitness and wellness tracking with sensors and wearables. However – no fitness data alone is able to prevent you of getting cancer, diabetes or other fatal diseases. You need to be able to measure, understand and act when early signs of diseases appear.
In the near future we are able track easily our personal early warning signs with non-invasive devices and platforms at home and communities – instead of waiting for symptoms.
CreaxHealth is dedicated to promote rapid and easy-to-use, non-invasive tracking devices and screening methods for cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer and cardiovascular diseases, for example MedicubeX Ltd. – a finnish company founded in 2020 – for the development and sales of smart self-service solutions for healthcare.
Together with our strategic partners we have an ultimate portfolio of non-invasive game changing products, devices and platforms in our pipeline to be introduced on the market during 2020, for example AGE Reader – a disruptive, non-invasive CVD/diabetes risk assessment device by Diagnoptics Technologies BV.
