How does it Work?

In under an hour, ENDOSURE test results support your clinician’s decisions

Fighting for Faster Diagnosis

Despite growing awareness of the condition, many women wait years to be diagnosed with endometriosis. We will change that.

After Diagnosis - What's next?

Diagnosis expedites the path to treatment, symptom management and stopping future disease progression.

Path to treatment starts with diagnosis

Period pain? Infertility?

If you suspect endometriosis, the ENDOSURE Tier 1 test accurately detects disease presence in under an hour with instant results. Results provide your clinician with decision support for a rapid diagnosis of endometriosis.

Transform patient lives in a single visit

With laparoscopic surgery as the current gold standard for diagnosis, it’s no surprise there’s a 5 to 10 year wait for surgical diagnosis. Symptoms like pain and infertility that erode a patient’s quality of life and health continue, or even worsen, during this long diagnostic gap. Tier 1 endometriosis testing is now available in Canada. With a patient experience more like an electrocardiogram (ECG), the non-invasive and rapid ENDOSURE test delivers instant and accurate results.

Suspect endometriosis?

ENDOSURE accurately detects endometriosis presence for all disease stages, all disease subtypes and locations. It is appropriate for all patient ages.

Closing the diagnositic gap

The Endometriosis diagnosis dilemma

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, frequently chronic inflammatory disease associated with pelvic and abdominal pain, bloating, painful irregular bowel or urinary symptoms, and/or infertility.

Symptomatic endometriosis has an estimated population prevalence of at least 10% globally, with most experiencing significant diagnostic delays of 3 to 11 years from onset of symptoms.2  Data of at-risk populations shows that 45% of adolescents and 55% of early adults have underlying endometriosis as the cause for regular dysmenorrhea.

Until now, rapid diagnostic testing that supported timely diagnosis and treatment was unavailable.

Diagnostic delays

Limitations in current diagnostic tests to detect early stage disease created the need for laparoscopy, the current gold standard for diagnosis, contributing to a 5-10+ year diagnostic delay between onset of symptoms and diagnosis of endometriosis.

It was never in your head. It was in your gut.

With symptoms overlapping with other conditions, pain viewed as normal by the patient &/or their treating clinician, and a lack of Tier 1 testing, patients suffered for years without answers.

Now we can test for it.

ENDOSURE detects endometriosis presence with 99% accuracy. Tier 1 diagnostic testing provides clinicians with decision support so they can rapidly confirm endometriosis as the cause of menstrual or abdominal pain and infertility. This helps women receive care much earlier, and may be the best hour they’ve ever invested in their health.

ENDOSURE, the only Tier 1 test for endometriosis

The Science

Endometriosis causes unusual contractile patterns in the small bowel due to higher than normal serum levels of prostaglandins secreted by endometriosis tissues, despite disease location; peritoneal, ovarian, extra pelvic or intrauterine. While normal ranges of gut contractions are 1-12 cycles per minute (CPM) in healthy women, prostaglandins cause uncontrolled high-frequency contractions ranging from 15-200 CPM when endometriosis is present. This causes many of the painful symptoms associated with endometriosis.

The ENDOSURE Test objectively collects this gut seizure activity using EVG, then compares a patient’s GIMA profile to the “GIMA biomarker” for endometriosis to detect disease presence. In clinical studies, the test has 99% accuracy (98% accuracy for patients 36 years+) with surgical verification, reflecting a strong ability to distinguish between positive and negative cases.1

ENDOSURE test results offer clinical decision support, when endometriosis is suspected. With testing more like an ECG, Tier 1 diagnostic testing for endometriosis is now fast, easy, safe and accurate.

Endometriosis Diagnosis for Women in Rural and Remote Communities

Endometriosis Diagnosis for Women in Rural and Remote Communities

“People that live in rural communities, don’t want to go into big cities. And so, working to break down those barriers… just makes sense to me,” says the Owner/Operator of Exeter Massage Therapy and Integrative Care, Stephanie Vandenbussche. The great news? The wait for a endometriosis diagnosis is over with the advent of Tier 1 testing in Canada. And we’ve already brought the Tier 1 ENDOSURE diagnostic test for endometriosis to a rural clinic in Exeter, ON to demonstrate it’s ability to shorten the diagnostic gap to 30-minutes.
