More on Bone Scan Index (BSI): BSI is an imaging biomarker providing fast, accurate and quantifiable information to be used for diagnose and stratification, monitoring of treatment response and increased accuracy in prognoses tending to patients suffering from skeletal metastases originating from prostate- or breast cancer. BSI has also demonstrated its importance in the process of developing new drugs, thus proving itself equally important for clinical use as for pharmaceutical industry. EXINI boneBSI serves as the only software capable to extract BSI-value for both these purposes. www.bonescanindex.org www.exini.com/software-bone-bsi/ www.business-sweden.se For more information, please contact: Magnus Aurell, CEO Phone: +46 46 286 54 25 E-mail: magnus.aurell@exini.com About EXINI Diagnostics AB (publ) EXINI Diagnostics AB (publ) offers advanced solutions for medical decision support to hospitals worldwide.
