MicroElastic Ultrasound Systems

MicroElastic Ultrasound Systems is a Durham, North Carolina-based ultrasound device start-up company developing patented ultrasound technology for quantifying properties of the skin.

We specialize in providing innovative solutions for precision medicine, focusing on applications in clinical dermatology and chronic disease management. Our core technology, the Bullseye device, uses ultrasound to measure the firmness and thickness of skin, offering noninvasive and instant quantification of mechanical properties.

What sets MicroElastic apart is our commitment to translating fundamental research into practical tools for clinicians and researchers. We are actively collaborating with academic institutions and industry partners to advance the use of our technology in areas such as Graft-Versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) monitoring and lymphedema management, ultimately improving patient outcomes and setting a new standard in diagnostics.

Founded by Peter Hollender, Ph.D., MicroElastic is driven by a team of experienced engineers, scientists, and business advisors, including experts in ultrasonics, software development, and commercialization. We are dedicated to delivering customer-focused technology solutions and are proud to be supported by grants from the NIH and SBIR program.
