Brief Description

Description :

It's an easy-to-use compact product BiliSURE which is capable of monitoring the bilirubin level in neonates non-invasively and instantly, saving the turnaround time that invasive methods take to churn out the diagnosis. This device is designed to take into account the level of melanin at the subcutaneous level and negate the same to account for accurate measurement of bilirubin, making it suitable for a population with high melanin levels in countries like India.
