About Electro-Optical Sciences

Electro-Optical Sciences (EOS) is a medical device company focused on the design and development of a non-invasive, point-of-care instrument to help physicians more effectively diagnose melanoma at an early stage. MelaFind®, the company's flagship product, incorporates advanced imaging technology and algorithms to provide physicians with unique data and an immediate recommendation of whether a suspicious lesion should be biopsied.
