About VeriTeQ

VeriTeQ is focused on the unique device identification (“UDI”) of implantable and reusable medical devices through its Q Inside Safety Technology, and radiation dose measurement during radiation therapy. VeriTeQ’s FDA cleared Q Inside Safety Technology acts as an electronic serial number in breast implants and other implantable and reusable medical devices that gives physicians and patients access to secure online databases to retrieve device-specific data such as serial number, manufacturer name, date of manufacture, lot number, volume, size, and other data from the medical device manufacturer. Q Inside Safety Technology also provides an extra level of protection to the patient in the event of a recall or other safety event.

DVS SmartMarker is the world’s first FDA cleared, implantable, wireless radiation sensor, and is used to measure the radiation dose delivered to a patient directly from the site of the tumor during cancer treatment. DVS SmartMarker is cleared for use in breast and prostate cancer patients. Its OneDose® adhesive technology is FDA cleared for use in cancer patients being treated with external beam radiation to measure radiation dose levels at the skin surface.
