MedX Health Corp. has forged a strategic collaboration in the Italian healthcare market between Vitamed Biomedical and Medispa, an Italian healthcare company delivering digital solutions for prevention, wellness, and healthcare.

The partnership will enable MedX to deploy its proprietary SIAscope on DermSecure platform across Medispa’s network of pharmacies, medical centers, and wellness facilities, increasing patient access to advanced skin screening and preventive care.

“We are pleased to support our partners Vitamed Biomedical and Medispa in bringing our SIAscope on DermSecure system to a broader patient base in Italy,” said Mike Druhan, president of Dermatological Services at MedX Health Corp. “This collaboration is an important milestone in our international expansion strategy and underscores our commitment to enabling early detection of melanoma by a dermatologist through accessible, non-invasive teledermatology.”

The SIAscope on DermSecure system enables rapid, non-invasive imaging of suspicious skin lesions, which are securely transmitted for dermatologist review often within 72 hours, thereby accelerating diagnosis while reducing unnecessary referrals and wait times. The solution has been cleared for clinical use across multiple jurisdictions, including the European Union, Canada, the United States., Australia, and the United Kingdom.

“This collaboration with Medispa strengthens our mission to expand the reach of teledermatology in Italy,” Vitamed Biomedical CEO Giuseppe Verderame stated. “By integrating MedX’s platform into high-traffic and trusted community hubs like pharmacies and wellness centers, we are improving accessibility and empowering individuals with better tools for early skin cancer detection.”

Italy represents a key European growth market for MedX Health, where demand for accessible, specialist-level dermatological screening continues to grow due to increased awareness of skin cancer risks associated with aging populations and sun exposure.

“This partnership perfectly aligns with Medispa’s vision of innovating healthcare delivery through digital technology. By offering MedX’s solution through our network, we’re providing citizens with fast, reliable access to dermatological screening and reinforcing our commitment to prevention-first health services,” Medispa CEO Andrea Prina added.

Vitamed Biomedical provides advanced medical technologies and is a MedX commercial partner in Italy. The company distributes healthcare solutions that support early diagnosis and patient-centered care across Italy’s public and private healthcare sectors.

Medispa is an Italian company specializing in digital innovation for prevention and wellness services. With a strong presence in pharmacies, medical clinics, and wellness centers, Medispa delivers integrated, forward-thinking health services.

Ontario, Canada-based MedX Health Corp. develops non-invasive skin analysis and teledermatology solutions. Its SIAscopy technology, integrated into the DermSecure platform, enables pain-free imaging of skin lesions for rapid remote dermatologist assessment.
