Associated Press12 hours ago

PITTSBURGH, June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - MolecuLight Corp., a global pioneer in point-of-care fluorescence imaging for wound care, proudly announces the publication of a landmark systematic review by researchers at Trinity College Dublin and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI). Titled 'The Clinical Utility of Autofluorescence Imaging for Bacterial Detection in Wounds', this review is the first to systematically compile data from 17 studies on fluorescence imaging.1 It conclusively establishes the crucial role of MolecuLight's technology in enhancing wound assessment by equipping clinicians with real-time, actionable information to effectively detect elevated bacterial burden, fundamentally transforming wound management.
'This new publication is a crucial step forward for MolecuLight. It provides a comprehensive review of existing evidence, further underscoring the essential role of MolecuLight's fluorescence imaging in elevating wound care,' said Anil Amlani, CEO of MolecuLight. 'Bacterial bioburden leads to infections and is a critical factor inhibiting wound healing, and this paper clearly articulates how our technology empowers clinicians to not only identify the presence and location of bacteria but also to guide targeted interventions. Ultimately, this leads to faster and more effective healing for patients, further strengthening the growing body of evidence supporting our technology's profound impact.'
'As a co-author of this systematic review and an academic and researcher who utilized MolecuLight's technology in practice, I can attest to the profound impact it has on clinicians' ability to manage complex wounds,' said study author Rosemarie Derwin, PhD, MSc, PG Dip, BNS, RGN, RNT, experienced nurse, educator, and researcher at the School of Nursing and Midwifery, Trinity College Dublin. 'The real-time visualization of bacteria provides immediate practical information that guides treatment decisions, leading to more effective care plans and ultimately, better outcomes for patients. This study affirms what many of us have seen clinically: MolecuLight is a vital asset in modern wound care.'
This detailed systematic review of current evidence underscores the capability of MolecuLight devices to identify clinically significant levels of bioburden. This bioburden, frequently undetectable via visual inspection and present in over 80% of chronic wounds,2 frequently causes infection and necessitates targeted intervention. By visualizing bacterial fluorescence, clinicians are equipped to:
MolecuLight continues to build on a robust foundation of clinical evidence. With over 100 peer-reviewed publications demonstrating the utility and impact of its fluorescence imaging technology, this systematic review powerfully reinforces that managing bacterial burden is essential for effective wound care. It affirms that MolecuLight devices provide an invaluable and proven tool for clinicians to achieve this, by enabling more precise and targeted interventions that hold strong promise for improved healing trajectories and enhanced patient quality of life. The company remains dedicated to advancing wound care through innovative solutions that improve patient lives and reduce healthcare costs.

Craft Telemedicine Launches to Redefine Specialty Care with Human-Centered

Revolutionary no-subscription telemedicine model gives patients complete control over specialized compounded medications and pharmacy choice TULSA, Okla., June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Craft Telemedicine today announced the official launch of its innovative telemedicine platform that eliminates subscription models and empowers patients with unprecedented choice and transparency in their healthcare decisions. Unlike traditional telehealth platforms that lock patients into monthly subscriptions and limited pharmacy networks, Craft Telemedicine operates on a pay-per-prescription model. Patients pay one transparent fee to receive their prescription and maintain complete freedom to fill it at any pharmacy of their choice. "Clarity is a form of care," said Arlee Riveland, CEO and Co-Founder. "I didn't set out to found a healthcare company, but I did set out to build human-centered tools that solve real problems. And this one matters." Addressing Critical Access Gaps Craft Telemedicine launches with high-quality compounded medications, beginning with Low-Dose Naltrexone and Methylene Blue—specialized treatments often difficult to access through traditional healthcare channels. "When patients search for Methylene Blue online, they're flooded with options that range from aquarium treatments to industrial dyes," said Jack Korbutov, Co-Founder and pharmacist at The Art of Medicine. "Many people don't realize that what they're buying isn't pharmaceutical-grade and heavy metal-free. This could actually be harmful." The platform was built in partnership with The Art of Medicine to ensure patients receive pharmaceutical-grade compounded medications with rigorous quality standards. The founding team includes Stephen Stearman, who brings extensive healthcare entrepreneurship experience through his leadership of multiple healthcare companies under the Craft Health Group. Expanding Nationwide Network Craft Telemedicine is actively seeking partnerships with high-quality compounding pharmacies nationwide, positioning itself as the preferred telemedicine platform for pharmacies seeking to grow their patient base without compromising their values or independence. "We're building a network of trusted compounding pharmacies that share our commitment to quality and patient care," explained Riveland. "We're not just delivering prescriptions—we're restoring agency to patients." The platform is currently available in 25 states with plans to serve all 50 states by 2026. Patients can access the platform at with transparent, pay-per-prescription pricing and no subscription fees.
