SINGAPORE, Nov. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — HistoIndex, a pioneering leader in artificial intelligence (AI) and stain-free digital pathology, will present its latest research findings and advancements in AI-based analysis at the 75th The Liver Meeting® (TLM) 2024, hosted by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD). The conference, which brings together leading scientists, clinicians, and industry experts in hepatology, will be held from November 15th to 19th, in San Diego, California.
HistoIndex’s team, including the KOLs involved in the studies, will be sharing insights into the company’s innovative approach to assess regression and progression of liver fibrosis, including groundbreaking AI-enabled methodology that enhance the detection, quantification, and assessment of various liver conditions such as Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) and fibrosis. With the incidence of liver diseases rising globally, these presentations are timely in showcasing how HistoIndex’s stain-free digital pathology solutions and AI technology address current challenges by providing highly accurate, reproducible, and interpretable data from liver biopsies.
As a leader in AI-based analysis using stain-free digital pathology, we are honored to have extensive representation at TLM 2024, showcasing twelve abstracts from phase 2b and phase 3 clinical trials that span four distinct mechanisms of action (MOA) in MASH. Commenting on the significance of the accepted abstracts, Dr. Dean Tai, Chief Scientific Officer at HistoIndex stated, "These findings from the four distinct MOA phase 2b/3 MASH trials, along with diverse studies highlighting the utility of our technology in cirrhotic MASH, differentiating pediatric and adult MASH, predicting clinical outcomes, and understanding hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence in chronic hepatitis B patients, underscore the transformative role of AI in advancing liver disease diagnosis, prognosis and personalized treatment. We are excited to share these advancements and their impact on clinical trials leading to routine clinical care."
