Hi-D Imaging AG
Hi-D Imaging AG was founded to develop and commercialize an AI-based decision-making support software for patient-specific diagnosis and treatment of cardiac diseases. Hi-D Imaging aims to reduce complexity of cardiac operational planning, shorten treatment planning time at heart centers, and reduce unnecessary use of medical imaging examinations. The novel technology enables physicians to perform fast, accurate, reliable and personalized pre-operational planning, to predict blood flow abnormalities and to assess risks for post-operation/surgery conditions prior to the medical device implantations.
