Ms. Douglas to support patient engagement initiatives, joins Company's Industry Advisory Board
Perimeter Medical Imaging AI Inc. (TSXV: PINK,OTC:PYNKF) (OTCQX: PYNKF) ("Perimeter" or the "Company"), a commercial-stage medical technology company, announced today that it has entered into a collaboration with Jennifer Douglas breast cancer survivor, author, and influential patient advocate. Ms. Douglas will support the Company's patient education and engagement initiatives and join Perimeter's Industry Advisory Board ("IAB").
"Breast cancer surgery is physically and emotionally exhausting, but new technologies are making the journey easier," said Ms. Douglas. "With its OCT-based imaging platform, Perimeter aims to reduce repeat surgeries, speed recovery, and ultimately improve outcomes and quality of life for patients. I am thrilled to partner with the Perimeter team to share my experience and support patients across the breast cancer community."
Diagnosed with Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS), often referred to as Stage Zero Breast Cancer, at 41 Ms. Douglas quickly learned that there is no such thing as an 'easy' cancer. Her experience navigating biopsies, treatment decisions, and the emotional toll of the breast cancer journey led her to become a forceful patient advocate. She authored 'A Breast Cancer Journey: Living it One Step at a Time,' was named a Breast Cancer Awareness Month influencer by the Dr. Susan Love Foundation in 2022, and founded the Encourage community to support patients through all stages of the disease and survivorship. Ms. Douglas also leads virtual and in-person support sessions for the California Breast Cancer Support Group, a nonprofit dedicated to encouraging breast cancer patients throughout California . She previously hosted Breast Practices , a patient-education program developed with MOLLI Surgical (acquired by Stryker in 2024).
"I had the honor of working with Jennifer while at MOLLI Surgical, now part of Stryker Breast Care, on a number of patient support initiatives," said Diana Chan , Chair of Perimeter's Industry Advisory Board. "She is authentic, compassionate, and entirely dedicated to supporting breast cancer patients and survivors. Jennifer is an inspiration to others, and we look forward to collaborating with her to enhance Perimeter's focus on supporting breast cancer patients."
Ms. Douglas will join Ms. Chan, medical device industry veteran Tom Boon , and renowned surgical oncologist Dr. Ted James on the Company's Industry Advisory Board . The IAB, formed in August 2025 , brings together experts in medicine, industry, and advocacy to guide Perimeter's growth across geographies, products, and clinical adoption.
