Perceptive Informatics, the information technology arm of research and development contractor Parexel International Corp., rolled out a new imaging tool for the study of Alzheimer’s disease.
The new medical imaging methodology, aimed at clinical trials of Alzheimer’s treatments, measures ventricular size to help monitor brain atrophy in Alzheimer’s patients by examining MRI scans.
Earlier this week, Parexel posted a 6 percent sales increase and flat earnings for the third quarter.
