Cortechs’ Brain Disorder Monitor Snags Brazilian Clearance

Cortechs Labs received regulatory clearance in Brazil for its NeuroQuant neurodegenerative brain disorder monitor.

The device software helps to diagnose and monitor neurodegenerative brain disorders using magnetic resonance imaging. In five to seven minutes, the results are available for review in picture archiving and communication systems.

NeuroQuant produces volumetric measurements of a patient’s brain structure and compares the measurements to a normative database that adjusts for gender, age and intracranial volume.

The software was previously cleared in the U.S., EU, Canada, Australia and South Korea.
