India has made huge strides in its healthcare delivery, and this has been most evident in the way healthcare professionals and enterprises have come forward and taken charge in this Covid-19 pandemic. The economic upside of a strong healthcare system is enormous; including a healthy working population and becoming a centre for global medical tourism.
The entire value chain of the healthcare industry is undergoing a huge transformation on account of technology adoption in reducing the cost of healthcare, accessibility of healthcare facilities, early diagnosis, and effective treatment. NSA aims to recognise not only the exceptional startups, but also innovations across the healthcare value chain along with wellness and alternative medicine (AYUSH).

OralScan is the first multimodal image capturing device that uses multispectral imaging technology at its core for non-invasive and real-time screening of oral cancer and biopsy guidance. The proprietary software developed to operate OralScan is intuitive, so even health workers can be trained to handle the instrument, gather patient data, and share the screening report with clinicians.
OralScan is an intraoral camera that can be used for screening and early detection of oral cancer with the help of a cloud-based machine learning algorithm. It is a multispectral imaging hand-held device for simultaneous recording of oxygenated haemoglobin absorption in the diffusely reflected light and tissue fluorescence. The device consists of a sub-miniature monochrome camera featuring a 5MP CMOS sensor, connected to the USB port of a Tablet or Laptop and controlled through proprietary software. Multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs) illuminate the tissue, and the fluorescence and diffuse reflectance images are captured synchronously. The captured images are processed, pseudo colour mapped (PCM), and displayed on a tablet in real-time.
"Almost 89% of oral cancers in India arise from oral potentially malignant lesions of the oral cavity. The non-invasive imaging system will help clinicians like us in deciding where and when to take a biopsy from”
Principal, Government Dental College (GDC), Thiruvananthapuram
"In one of our patients who was provisionally diagnosed with an ulcer, histopathological examination following guided biopsy with OralScan diagnosed the lesion, which shows the promising potential of the device in identifying lesions noninvasively"
Department Of Oral Medicine, JSS Dental College & Hospital, Mysuru
“If a white lesion is seen, people are taking biopsy from wrong places and cannot identify the right place. This device will guide you to which site is malignant or not. OralScan is going to create a big change in the future"
