CellScope Oto™ (formerly known as Remotoscope) is a smartphone otoscope system. A simple clip-on system converts a standard smartphone into a digital otoscope with data transmission that enables diagnosis by a remote physician. With high-quality imaging and the ubiquity of wireless communication, a smartphone otoscope presents a cost effective and medically sound solution.

Ear infection, or otitis media, is the most common diagnosis in preschoolers and affect 75% of children by age six. It results in 30 million physician visits every year in the US and more in Europe. As a result, diagnosis and follow-up care require expensive and timeconsuming shortnotice visits to the pediatrician’s office, urgent care clinic or emergency room.

This project is currently funded by the Atlanta Pediatric Device Consortium (APDC) and the consortium has provided introductions to potential investors in anticipation of future funding needs. CellScope, Inc. is moving forward with plans to commercialize the technology, and the collaboration with the APDC is a critical part of this effort. The consortium has also facilitated interaction with the FDA. When the project joined the consortium the device was in the concept stage of development.

Principal Investigators: Erik Douglas, PhD and Wilbur Lam, MD, PhD
