Medical Metrics, Inc. (MMI), an experienced provider of medical imaging core lab services for global clinical trials, has been selected to conduct an independent evaluation of medical images as part of an FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical trial of a unique shoulder prosthesis. The new device represents an advance over existing implants because it preserves bone stock and allows for future revisions. The successful completion of this study will expand the sponsor’s current presence in the third largest joint reconstruction segment.
MMI developed the image acquisition and analysis protocols which were submitted to and approved by the FDA. These protocols included the image acquisition methods and required assessment panels necessary to evaluate treatment performance such as device fixation and integrity. During the trial, MMI will providecomprehensive image analysis and management of radiographic data.
MMI’s scientific staff and physician consultants specialize in joint replacement studies and the current client list includes global leaders in joint arthroplasty. Tom Martin, MMI’s CEO commented “Our commitment to provide the highest level of scientific expertise and project management support is why sponsors trust MMI with their pivotal trials. We are honored that we were chosen by this market leader as the imaging core lab for this important study.”
