Pneumacare Limited presents its non-contact lung function measurement technology aimed at diagnosing and monitoring thoracic function, capturing 3D views of chest movement for various patient populations, including neonates and pulmonology cases. The tool has applications in conditions such as COPD, cystic fibrosis, and thoracic surgery, enhancing patient assessment and ventilation optimization. For business inquiries, key contacts are provided, including CEO Ward Hills and Medical Director Dr. Richard Iles.

Editor's Notes
- #11 o Clinical areas of approach/interest with the technology. this is where you can paint the picture of applications beyond spirometry. You need to point to diagnostic tests that are not currently easily available. The material below is interesting with the focus on expanding the patient population. Tidal breathing in peds and adults may do that (no patient cooperation required). one caution, i don't see the PneumaScan as a screening tool for body box testing but i may be missing your intent. the body box is used to measure thoracic gas volume (VTG) and airways resistance (RAW) and most boxes have spirometry capability as well. Unless you are saying that you can use PneumaScan in some way to measure VTG (i know i don't have an NDA with you); perhaps with an occlusive shutter?? in which case you have something very interesting.
- #12 There is no left lung post-operatively and therefore movement reflects pure chest and abdominal wall movement. This patient had a thoracotomy and shows poor ipsilateral chest wall movement on POD3 which then improves. This qualitatively correlated with his general recovery.
