Exact Imaging named Life Science Company of the Year by Life Sciences Ontario

Markham-based Exact Imaging has received Life Sciences Ontario’s 2019 Life Science Company of the Year.

The company provides high-resolution micro-ultrasound systems enabling real-time imaging and biopsy guidance for the prostate. In January 2017, the company raised $21.5 million to commercialize its solution.

“We are honored to have been selected as LSO’s 2019 Life Science Company of the Year and I’m especially pleased for our 54-person team who have worked tirelessly to create and commercialize a technology that is changing lives and, through our customers, changing outcomes,” said Randy AuCoin, Exact Imaging’s president and CEO. “We are incredibly proud to be a Canadian-based company and are appreciative of the amazing ecosystem of medical device suppliers, partners and experts in Ontario who make up our extended family.”

The LSO awards will be presented to Exact Imaging during LSO’s Celebration of Success Awards Dinner at Toronto’s Liberty Grand on February 27, 2019. Life Sciences Ontario, a not-for=profit, is dedicated to advocating for public policy that advances the province’s life sciences sector.

“Exact Imaging is redefining the diagnosis of prostate cancer by driving significant benefits for patients, clinicians and the healthcare system globally,” said Life Sciences Ontario president and CEO Dr. Jason Field. “They are an excellent example of how Ontario-based innovation, coupled with manufacturing and commercialization expertise is fostering world-class medical device companies. We are proud to have chosen Exact Imaging as our 2019 Life Science Company of the Year and look forward to watching their continued growth in the global marketplace”.
