Established in 2010 by co-founders Yariv Oz and Einat Kidron, Orscan Technologies operated from Ra'anana, Israel, focusing on the development of 2D and 3D imaging technologies for the medical field. The company's core business was centered on creating advanced imaging solutions specifically for dermatology and aesthetic applications.
Orscan's primary product was a system that utilized a multi-camera array to perform 3D total body photography. This technology, described as a patented system of synchronized smart cameras, could generate a full-body 3D model in seconds. The primary benefit for medical professionals was the ability to create a comprehensive map of a patient's skin, including moles and sunspots, to track changes over time. This was positioned as a significant advancement for the early detection of melanoma, a critical factor in successful treatment. The platform allowed doctors to navigate the 3D model, analyze specific areas, and zoom in on suspicious spots for closer examination. Beyond dermatology, the company noted potential applications for its technology in the aesthetics field for tracking treatments like hair removal, psoriasis treatment, and face rejuvenation, as well as in lifestyle and entertainment sectors.
The business catered to medical professionals in dermatology and aesthetics, providing them with sophisticated diagnostic tools. It also offered its stereo vision technology, including hardware and software packages, for various research and OEM applications, supporting the entire process from image acquisition to a full 3D model. In November 2015, Orscan Technologies was acquired by Candela Medical, marking a significant milestone as an acqui-hired company.
