Skope develops advanced imaging solutions tailored to meet the critical needs of neuroscientists in their quest to unravel the brain structures and function, by providing high-quality, reproducible imaging for precise analysis and insight. These solutions are essential for functional MRI (fMRI), diffusion/DTI studies, and other scan advanced imaging protocols ensuring reliable data with minimal workflow disruption and mitigating scanner performance issues.
Skope’s technology accurately measures scanner performance, capturing deviations in image encoding caused by real-world scanner and subject sources. These field measurements are then used to produce images with consistent geometry, fewer artifacts, and improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Images generated with Skope tools, because scanner and subject induced sources are greatly reduced, better reflect the underlying physiology being imaged.
Utilizing Skope tools has allowed neuroimaging researchers to both better utilize well-proven imaging techniques such as the Human Connectome Project protocols and pursue state-of the art techniques, such as non-linear diffusion encoding. One of Skope’s critical innovation and development directions is to enable crucial progress in understanding, diagnosing, and treating neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and Alzheimer's, helping to advance research that leads to better outcomes for patients.
