Investor Information
Radiologists look at MRI scans and use their extensive training
to make qualitative judgments, but they don't yet extract all possible
information from the data. Quantitative measurements of volume, shape,
and location can be used as biomarkers or surrogate endpoints to help
in the diagnosis, identification of subtypes, and in guiding and gauging
response to treatment of disorders such as alcoholism, schizophrenia,
epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, autism,
attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, post traumatic stress disorder,
and many others. Using quantitative image-based biomarkers will save
time and money and open up new possibilities for understanding and treating
these disorders.
Neuromorphometrics' expertise is in localizing and
delineating anatomy as it appears in MR brain scans. Given raw scans,
we make precise quantitative measurements of the volume, shape, and
location of specific neuroanatomical structures. We are in the final
stages of developing our new automated brain analysis system, which
will become the benchmark for the treatment and diagnosis of brain
disorders measured quantitatively from MRI scans. We are seeking a
partner or investor to help us speed the process of bringing automated
analysis into the rapidly expanding field of quantitative medical imaging.
