Founded by imaging scientist Ricardo Avila, Accumetra develops medical imaging phantoms and cloud-based software for CT lung-cancer screening and quantitative image-quality assurance. Based in Clifton Park, the company draws on more than 25 years of lung-screening technology experience to help clinical sites verify scanner performance and manage screening programs.
The Phantom LaboratorySince 1989, The Phantom Laboratory has manufactured high-precision phantoms and custom solutions that help medical-imaging and radiation-therapy professionals test their equipment. Its Catphan line, developed with physicist David Goodenough and backed by decades of research, is a signature example of the company’s product design and refinement work. The Salem-area manufacturer also produces OEM and custom phantoms and operates under FDA registration and ISO 13485:2016 certification.SALEM, NY
