Infrascanner Infrascanner, a handheld brain hematoma screening device developed by Infrascan, enables accurate detection of intracranial bleeding in TBI patients.

InfraScan, Inc. is a medical device company that invented and distributes hand-held diagnostic devices for head injury and stroke assessment based on Near-Infrared (NIR) technology. The Infrascanner enables clinicians to effectively, conveniently, and accurately detect intracranial bleeding in patients with head trauma. Why Infrascanner?

• Early Detection
• Less Brain Tissue Damage
• Improved Patient Outcomes

Near Infrared (NIR) Technology in Infrascanner

The basic method for intracranial hematomas detection with NIR spectroscopy is based on the differential light absorption associated with the injured versus the non-injured parts of brain. Intracranial hematomas are an important and, if diagnosed early, treatable cause of secondary brain injury in patients with head trauma. Recent statistics from Iraq shows that 30% of all wounded in action have head injuries, and 40% of them have brain hematomas. Dr. Britton Chance (University of Pennsylvania) and Dr. Claudia Robertson (Baylor College of Medicine) invented a NIR system for detection of brain hematomas and tested it successfully in 305 patients in Baylor. An entrepreneurial team formed a company around this technology in collaboration with Drexel University and won the Wharton Business Plan competition in April 2004 and the second prize at the global business plan competition in Singapore in October 2004. The Office of Naval Research funded the company in May, the Biotechnology Greenhouse of Southeastern Pennsylvania, from Ben Franklin Technology Partners of Southeastern Pennsylvania, and from Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation. A multi-center clinical study to support an FDA submission started in July 2006, and on February 2008 an application was submitted to the FDA. After 4 years of review, the FDA cleared Infrascanner Model 1000 as a denovo medical technology in December 2011. In January 2013 the FDA cleared the 510(k) of Infrascanner Model 2000.

New data from the 600-patient SAFETY study demonstrates the value of the Infrascanner in traumatic brain injury triage during Large Scale Combat Operations.

Preliminary results presented at the 2026 Military Health System Research Symposium showed:

• Evacuation times reduced by 25 minutes to 2 hours
• 47% reduction in time to surgery
• 100% sensitivity among patients who ultimately required neurosurgery
• 88.5% of participating clinicians reported that the Infrascanner contributed to a change in patient care
• No reported device failures throughout the seven-month device phase, including winter field conditions

In austere and forward environments where CT imaging, neurosurgery, and rapid evacuation may be limited, portable brain assessment can provide critical decision-support information closer to the point of injury.
