CellScope captures and transmits images of disease agents, such as those that cause malaria and tuberculosis. To be able to receive analysis and treatment recommendations from remote experts could drastically reduce both the cost and time of performing critical disease diagnosis, as well as provide an early warning of epidemics, in poverty-stricken regions around the globe.
