Biodynamic Imaging System Enters Osteosarcoma Drug Screening at Indiana University

A laser-Doppler biodynamic imaging platform is being applied to osteosarcoma patient-derived models to rank chemotherapy responses; prior small observational cohorts showed moderate discriminatory accuracy but lacked prospective validation. Evidence remains at the preclinical stage with no RCT data yet available.

Next steps include expansion to additional sarcoma subtypes and a planned multi-center observational registry collecting matched imaging and RECIST outcomes to support a future pivotal trial design.

Pollok: First matched imaging-RECIST dataset from 50 new patients published by Q4 2027 with AUC exceeding 0.80
