Computer-aided detection (CAD) developer Medipattern of Toronto has completed a deal to raise nearly $5 million (U.S.) by selling shares to a Canadian investment firm.
Medipattern said it sold 4.7 million shares at a price of $1.10 Canadian per share ($1.04 U.S.) to Research Capital, also of Toronto, raising gross proceeds of $5.2 million ($4.9 million U.S.). Research Capital has options to buy nearly an additional 1 million shares over the next two years.
Medipattern said it plans to use proceeds from the deal to commercialize its B-CAD application for breast MRI, continue developing product extensions for its B-CAD for breast ultrasound software, file a premarket approval (PMA) application for B-CAD with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and expand sales and marketing operations.
