Imaging contract research organization (ICRO) ImageIQ has introduced new imaging-enabled electronic data capture system, EDCplus , for clinical trials involving medical imaging.

The cloud-based system is said to offer CROs, study sites, sponsors, image readers, study auditors and biostatisticians to study images, image data and real-time monitoring of imaging workflow at any time and place.

ImageIQ CEO Tim Kulbago said: "Before launching EDCplus, we developed solutions for several of our clients’ clinical trials, giving them a single centralized portal for managing and monitoring all of their studies’ imaging activities.

"Using our expertise in imaging analytics, trial workflow and software development, we were able to create a solution that was far more cost effective and operationally efficient with the benefit of security and a cloud-based model for both deployment and pricing."

Developed for Part 11 compliance, the system solves the complexities of multiple imaging acquisition, processing and analysis associated with the clinical trial and reduces errors caused by manual data entry.

The new system serves as a single center of information that interfaces with the trial’s CTMS and is being used in five trials at about 200 sites across the globe.
