CALGARY, AB, Jan. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Kent Imaging today issued a statement regarding the complaint filed by MolecuLight Corp. and MolecuLight Inc. in the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). The complaint alleges that Kent Imaging's SnapshotGLO®, which recently received FDA 510(k) clearance, infringes a patent to which MolecuLight purports to have a license. Kent Imaging denies all allegations of patent infringement in the complaint and is confident that MolecuLight's claims are without merit. Underscored by its track record for innovation, Kent Imaging maintains the highest respect for the intellectual property rights of others and intends to defend itself fully and fiercely against MolecuLight's unfounded claims.

"We are confident in our intellectual property, resolute in our position, and committed to ensuring clinicians continue to have uninterrupted access to technologies that materially improve patient outcomes."

Together, these technologies elevate both the science and clinical impact of advanced wound care, enabling earlier intervention and greater precision in treatment decisions.
