About Us
WheelsBridge AB stems from three decades of development of new technologies
for assessment of various skin parameters including the
Evaporimeter (transepidermal
water loss), the Laser Doppler Flowmeter (microcirculation) and the
Laser Doppler Imager (microvascular imaging) at the
department of Biomedical
Engineering, Linköpings Universitet. The company was founded by Gert Nilsson
(professor in biomedical instrumentation at the department of Biomedical
Engineering, Linköpings Universitet),
Chris Anderson (professor in dermatology at the department of Biomedicine
and Surgery, Linköping University Hospital) and Håkan Håkanson (technical
director at GS Development AB in Malmö).
Our
intention with WheelsBridge AB is to develop and bring to market innovative
technologies for easy assessment of tissue viability. Our first product is
the TIVI600 Tissue
Viability
Imager
intended primarily for skin testing in association with skin care product
and drug development. In the development of the TiVi600 system focus
has been on the creation of a technology that is versatile and easy to use
and yet affordable to a wide range of customers. Successively we have
developed tool-boxes for a variety of applications.
The
TiVi60 Skin Damage Visualizer is intended
for mapping of contact excema and damages to the circulation of the hands
following operation of vibrating tools. In the development of the TiVi60 system emphasis has been on the
possibility to perform work-site investigations of skin damage in
occupational medicine. The TiVi70 Skin Colour Tracker
maps alterations in skin colour over time and over a specific surface. The
TiVi80 Spot Analyzer assists the dermatologist
in the assessment of facial spots such as acne. An integrated Project
monitor analyses and displays data from an entire panel test. The
TiVi90 Wrinkle Analyzer and the
TiVi95 Surface Analyzer automatically
analysis the appearance of wrinkles and cellulite formations typically
before and after treatment.
It is our
hope that the TiVi600 and the associated
tool-boxes will open up new possibilities for
investigation of the skin, increase your productivity and add new dimensions
to your professional life.
