4DMedical secures US Department of Defence contract for CT:VQ pilot program
• 4DMedical has secured a contract with the US Department of Defense (DoD) to pilot its CT Ventilation-Perfusion (CT:VQ™) technology to assess lung health in a fixed cohort of active duty personnel.
• The contract builds on the success of 4DMedical’s earlier agreement with the DoD for the deployment of its CT Lung Ventilation Analysis Software (CT LVAS™) in a clinical pilot program.
• The initiative aims to assess lung health in a cohort of active-duty personnel, building on the company’s prior collaboration with the DoD using CT lung ventilation analysis software.
• The company’s radioisotope-free CT:VQ lung scanning tech will form part of a U.S. Department of Defense-paid pilot leading into a formal FDA submission for approval.
• The company sees the potential to fund a ‘nuclear-free’ lung scanning pilot for 4DMedical.
