Huntington's Disease

HD Left Dark

IXICO excels in delivering HD imaging using advanced imaging biomarkers that quantify key HD measurements, such as caudate nucleus and putamen atrophy, white matter integrity changes, and striatal susceptibility changes. Used in combination with the IXI™ Platform, this enhances our accuracy and efficacy for measuring disease-specific changes in brain region volumetrics.

With a proven track record in HD clinical trials and collaborations with key scientific institutions, such as University College London (UCL) and the CHDI Foundation, IXICO’s combination of disease-specific approaches, tools and technologies, together with deep scientific expertise, has enabled IXICO to build a reputation as the trusted partner for HD clinical trials.
