The upcoming release in 2022 promises improved density information and enhanced ergonomics.
In terms of funding, Micrima's most recent financial boost was a £1.90M Series A investment received on 21 April 2021, with contributions from notable backers such as Angel CoFund and Technology Venture Partners. This investment is pivotal for advancing their clinical trials and market readiness in the burgeoning field of cancer diagnostics.
