cervAIcal is a mobile colposcope that enhances cervical cancer
screening through real-time imaging, while OrCA is a comprehensive
oral cancer assessment system that digitizes documentation and
facilitates remote diagnostics.By leveraging these technologies, RaKSAequips CHWs with the ability to detect cancers at earlier stages,
leading to better health outcomes. The initiative is particularly
focused on regions where traditional screening methods are not widely
available or affordable.Key Benefits of RaKSA:
