    “Medical imaging plays an important role in the early evaluation of new compounds in musculoskeletal related clinical research, including in the growing areas of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, and osteoarthritis,” said Kenneth G. Faulkner, Ph.D., Vice President of Medical Imaging, Perceptive Informatics. “Our alliance with Optasia provides customers with better surrogate measurements in trials focused on knee-related osteoarthritis, a progressive disease. This relationship represents our commitment to help customers accelerate trials and speed new treatments to patients in the musculoskeletal therapeutic area.”
    Optasia develops software, which is used in clinical trials to identify and monitor patients who will benefit from treatment, to facilitate the more rapid, accurate evaluation of medical images with greater reproducibility. Optasia’s software applications are based on the Optasia Platform, which employs model-based vision technology to detect, measure, classify and compare two-dimensional medical images.
    Perceptive Informatics has a broad range of musculoskeletal imaging clinical research experience and capabilities. The Medical Imaging Group of Perceptive Informatics offers a range of capabilities in the application of imaging techniques from early clinical development through peri-approval studies. The medical imaging team operates globally and services a wide range of therapeutic areas, including oncology, neurology, rheumatology, cardiology, and endocrinology.
