      Nano-X Limited uses semiconductors instead of metal filaments in its devices to generate X-rays. The partnership with the largest chipmaker SK Hynix has provided an opportunity to Nano-X to bring new technologies. Nano-X has devices that produce less radiation and are cheaper. Nano-X devices will be able to disrupt the traditional system as they cannot only reduce radiation, improve images but also provide access for more patients.

      Nano-X has earlier signed an exclusive distribution agreement with SPI Medical for the deployment and introduction of Nanox’s medical imaging services in Mexico. Nanox will offer the Nanox Systems to SPI for pilots in the public and private sectors. This company has a unique technology and has a strong business model.

      Nanox has a solution that has the ability to revolutionize the medical devices industry. Its new technology could reduce the cost of medical imaging systems and is striving to work with many organizations and companies to provide affordable technologies to customers. As the world lack access to diagnostic imaging, it has aimed to supply 4,500 units in various countries. It has also decided to join forces with the Foxconn Technology group for the mass production.
