In cooperation with Case Western Reserve and Duke, Bioptigen has commercialized ultra-high resolution FDOCT imaging systems providing researchers and clinicians with the tools to study, identify, track and treat eye disease, from the cornea to the retina and at the very earliest stages.

"Bioptigen is very pleased to extend its relationship with Case through this new technology agreement. The intellectual property licensed by Case is fundamental to our ability to provide the highest performance FDOCT imaging system today and to develop new clinical tools that will dramatically extend the clinical value of FDOCT into the future," said Eric Buckland, director, president and chief executive officer of Bioptigen.

"As part of the licensing agreement, Case will become an equity partner in Bioptigen, further strengthening our relationship," said Michael Haag, director of biomedical licensing at Case. Other terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

"We look forward to working with Bioptigen to incorporate the Case technology and expand their product portfolio to address medical disciplines beyond ocular imaging," Haag said.
