Expanded business development agreement to offer Imaging Biometrics’ products on the Cortechs.ai platform
Cortechs.ai and Imaging Biometrics®, LLC (IB), a subsidiary of IQ-AI Limited (LON:IQAI), join forces to increase global access to clinical diagnostic accuracy tools. This amendment to the existing non-exclusive business development agreement entails the hosting of IB’s software on Cortechs.ai’s global delivery platform for radiology AI solutions.
With this new relationship, Cortechs.ai customers will be able to purchase IB’s automated imaging software products, which are highly synergistic with Cortechs.ai’s neuroradiology portfolio, and begin immediate use through the Cortechs.ai platform without any infrastructure changes or internal IT support. This implementation aims to increase IB’s global customer base by leveraging Cortechs.ai’s internal sales and marketing teams as well as global installed base.
IB’s exclusive algorithms advance clinical understanding of brain tumor pathology by quantitatively distinguishing tumor progression from equivocal MR or CT image artifacts.
- IB NeuroTM, the recognized consensus standard for use in high grade gliomas, is the only commercially available, tissue validated method that automatically generates quantitative relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) maps independent of scanner, field strength, patient or time point.
- IB Delta SuiteTM automates quantitative difference (Delta T1) maps using pre- and post-contrast T1 weighted MRI to help clinicians clearly delineate true regions of contrast enhancement.
- IB DiffusionTM calculates ADC maps, and other diffusion parameters such as Intra Voxel Inherent Motion (IVIM), Extrapolated b-value, and stretched exponential (Alpha diffusion and DDC). ADC values have been shown to be useful in the diagnosis and treatment monitoring of all solid tumors.
- IB DCETM calculates parameters for solid tumor perfusion and permeability analysis and includes pharmacokinetic modeling (Tofts, Extended Tofts, and Patlak).
Michael Schmainda, CEO of IB, said, “This seamless integration of our quantitative solutions on the Cortechs.ai platform enables immediate access to best-in-class technologies for diagnosing and treating a wide range of neurological disorders.”
Many of IB’s products complement the Cortechs.ai portfolio and can now be used together to assess neurological conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, and brain cancer.
“Adding the Imaging Biometrics product suite to our AI platform will very quickly expand the availability of these products to radiology departments and imaging facilities worldwide,” said Chris Airriess, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Cortechs.ai. “The integration can reduce many of the challenges typically faced by application vendors selling directly to healthcare providers.”
