  • Descrição: MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif., May 4 /PRNewswire/ CompuMed, Inc. (Nasdaq: CMPD) announced today that it has received and accepted a Letter of Intent from The Johns Hopkins University Medical School and The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory to cooperatively develop with CompuMed a new generation of medical devices expected to revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis and other musculoskeletal diseases. The Johns Hopkins University Medical School (JHU) and The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) have developed and are continuing to refine a compact, economical three-dimensional (3-D) musculoskeletal imaging system that could enable the precise measurement of bone and muscle structure and strength. CompuMed has developed or licensed technologies that may readily support the commercialization of such devices. The parties believe that together they can develop enhanced products with significant commercial potential. "The agreement with CompuMed is a logical one since the company is currently at the forefront of high resolution imaging methods for bone mineral analysis," said Dr. Thomas J. Beck, Associate Professor of Radiology at Johns Hopkins University Medical School. "In addition, the computer algorithms that measure the structure of bones can easily be adapted to these high-resolution images thus extending the information already present in a very significant way," added Dr. Beck.
