Computerized image analysis developer VirtualScopics of Rochester, NY, and contract research organization PPD of Wilmington, NC, will collaborate on clinical and medical imaging services designed to help biopharmaceutical companies enhance the development of their oncology compounds.
The partnership will integrate technologies and processes to give biopharmaceutical companies near-real-time medical imaging information to expedite their drug development programs.
VirtualScopics uses software applications built upon a proprietary algorithm-based methodology to analyze medical images across multiple modalities, including MRI, PET, CT, and ultrasound.
Through the measurement of image-based biomarkers, VirtualScopics creates reproducible data that drug and device developers use to help determine an earlier proof of concept, safety, and efficacy.
