BioXmark – Non-clinical studies

Patient safety and product reliability and performance are our highest priorities. This is reflected in our commitment to research partnerships for thorough testing of BioXmark® in non-clinical settings.

 

Part of the non-clinical studies of BioXmark® has also demonstrated pre-clinical applicability of our liquid fiducial marker to increase precision and accuracy in Small Animal Image-Guided Radiation Therapy studies as a means to improve animal welfare in research.

 

See below for a list of BioXmark® non-clinical study publication and at the bottom of the page is a link to download a full BioXmark® publication list.

 

If you are interested in a scientific collaboration to further exploit the potential of BioXmark, do not hesitate to contact us.
