EDX Medical

EDX Medical Group plc is a UK-based listed company focused on the development of diagnostic tests that enable personalized treatment for cancer, heart disease and infectious diseases. In addition to advanced laboratory tests, the company scientists in Cambridge and Oxford, UK, are in the late stages of developing a range of tests capable of accurately measuring a combination of multiple disease markers on a single device within minutes. These tests will be used to identify early signs of cancer, infections, and cardio-vascular conditions and can be carried out by health professionals at the point-of-care, wherever they work, without delays and the costs associated with laboratory processing.
