Medical imaging plays an increasingly vital role in clinical research – and we’re proud to be leading the way with innovative imaging solutions.

Joins us to discuss this and other topics at the 19th Clinical Trials Strategic Summit (CTSS) 2025 in Munich, where our COO, Dr. Julia Müller, will represent us.

At mediri, we specialize in advanced medical imaging solutions that support clinical trials from early-phase research to multi-center studies. Our expertise spans image data management, centralized image reading, and AI-assisted analysis, helping to ensure precision, consistency, and regulatory compliance in clinical research.
The CTSS summit is a fantastic opportunity to exchange ideas, explore innovations, and shape the future of clinical trials together.

We’re looking forward to insightful discussions and new collaborations.
Let’s connect in Munich!

Welcome aboard, Tewele! We look forward to the innovative insights and progress you’ll bring to our team. 

We are thrilled about the market approval of Lecanemab in the EU, marking a promising breakthrough for millions affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Early detection is crucial, and in this field, our ASL team is at the forefront of research. Upcoming observational studies can be supported by our cutting-edge technology, which can non-invasively monitor the course of the disease.

Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) represents a modern MRI technique for measuring regional brain perfusion and permeability by modifying the magnetization of blood water protons to serve as natural tracers. This method is entirely non-invasive, eliminating the need for ionizing radiation or external contrast agents.

The non-invasive nature of ASL provides numerous benefits for clinical research: it allows for repeated cerebral blood flow (CBF) measurements as often as needed and is suitable for use in vulnerable groups, such as patients with renal failure, elderly individuals or Alzheimer’s patients.

Brain Perfusion & Parkinson’s: A Vital Connection

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, and understanding brain blood flow is key to improving diagnosis and treatment. Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) MRI, a non-invasive perfusion imaging technique, provides valuable insights by measuring cerebral blood flow.

Early Detection – Identifies perfusion changes before significant symptoms appear.
Tracking Disease Progression – Monitors blood flow reductions in affected brain regions.
Optimizing Treatment – Helps assess therapy effectiveness and personalize care.
Advancing Research – Aids in drug development and deeper understanding of PD pathology.

ASL MRI is revolutionizing how we detect, monitor, and treat Parkinson’s, paving the way for more precise and effective interventions.

At mediri GmbH, we support you with sophisticated yet easy-to-use ASL image analysis tools, including specialized ASL sequences that can measure exchange time. Our services cover all aspects of ASL imaging.
As a one-stop-shop, we provide comprehensive evaluation services. We specialize in clinical trials that demand precise image data acquisition and quality assurance. Our services include image collection, quality checks, site support, and project management. Perfect for clinical trials requiring longitudinal imaging data or centralized reviews.

On this World Health Day, we emphasize the need for quality healthcare for women before, during, and after pregnancy and childbirth. Women’s health is a cornerstone of thriving families and communities.

At mediri, we take pride in being an employer that champions the health and well-being of our female employees. We are dedicated to creating a supportive workplace that nurtures their health.

Let’s unite in our efforts to ensure every woman receives the care she deserves. Together, we can create a healthier world!

The non-invasive nature of ASL provides numerous benefits for clinical research: it allows for repeated cerebral blood flow (CBF) measurements as often as needed and is suitable for use in vulnerable groups, such as patients with renal failure or pediatric patients.

Why It Matters: ASL offers a safe and effective way to measure cerebral perfusion, making it ideal for various clinical applications.

Are you interested in truly non-invasive BBB imaging? We are. That’s why we are investigating in Multi-Echo Arterial Spin Labeling MR imaging techniques (a.k.a. BBB ASL) that enable Tex brain maps.

If you are using ASL sequences for your research you will be familiar with CBF and ATT maps. Our cutting-edge MR sequences together with sophisticated mathematical models go beyond these and produce Tex maps, which show the microvascular exchange dynamics and promise to be an indicator for BBB integrity.

More research in this field is to come and will show how Tex can be used clinically in the future. Be part of this research: Contact us if you want to join us on this exciting journey! 

Not (yet) familiar with the wording? Here you go:

ASL Arterial Spin Labeling is a special MRI technique which uses magnetically labeled blood for perfusion measurements.
BBB Blood Brain Barrier… you have heard of that one.
CBF Cerebral Blood Flow is a measure for brain perfusion.
ATT Arterial Transit Time is the time taken from blood to travel from large arteries in the neck to the cerebral tissue.
Tex exchange Time serves as proxy for BBB permeability to water.

Meet our COO Dr. Julia Müller in Frankfurt to discuss hot topics in Neuroimaging from Perfusion to BBB integrity.
How can we bring perfusion MRI into clinical application? How can we simplify the analysis of Arterial Spin Labeling MR images and provide sophistaced biomarkers for brain perfusion and micro-architecture? I am looking forward to discuss these topics with you at the DGKN e.V. Conference in Frankfurt this week.
