The new CCO previously launched new products at Johnson & Johnson, Healthpoint, and Allergan on national and global scales.
“My previous roles have me well poised to bring Spectral AI’s technology to market across a broad range of locations, demographics, and clinical indications,” Sparks said in a statement. “This groundbreaking technology holds promise for several applications and I am excited to help the team deliver this advancement in wound care management to as many patients as possible.”
