MedTeQ works to build the next generation of medical imaging and monitoring systems and develop completely new ways of making medical images to measure physiological function. MedTeQ undertakes world class research of medical devices in a range of disciplines in consultation with clinicians at each of its partner hospitals in Queensland, who provide input on prototype development and access to patient cohorts. MedTeQ's two aims are: to improve health care and efficiency through enhanced diagnostic systems and alternate modes of care delivery; and to generate the design of innovative diagnostic devices and systems.
