Breath-based diagnostics
Avelo is a healthcare company focused on revolutionizing the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) and pneumonia through non-invasive breath sampling technology. Their flagship product, AveloCollect, is a breath aerosol collector that simplifies testing: patients breathe into the device for two minutes, the collected sample is transferred to a standard lab tube for analysis, and results enable diagnosis and treatment of multiple respiratory diseases. This approach aims to replace more invasive traditional diagnostic methods like sputum samples or blood tests, potentially improving accessibility and efficiency in detecting TB and pneumonia globally.
