About

POROUS is a medical technology startup based in Potsdam, Germany, focused on improving osteoporosis detection through non-invasive ultrasound technology. Founded in 2021 by Prof. Kay Raum, the company aims to enhance patient outcomes by providing early and accurate diagnostics for bone health. Their patented quantitative ultrasound (QUS) technology measures critical indicators of bone quality, such as cortical thickness and pore-size distribution, without exposing patients to radiation. The technology is designed for use in various settings, including hospitals, primary care facilities, and pharmacies, facilitating early screening and diagnosis of osteoporosis. POROUS is also involved in clinical trials to validate its technology's effectiveness in predicting osteoporotic fractures in individuals over 55. Additionally, the company participates in the "PigBoneS" project, collaborating with Swiss breeding company Suisag to improve bone density in pigs using their ultrasound technology. POROUS targets healthcare providers, research organizations, and the veterinary sector, aiming to expand its impact in both human and animal health.
