Revolutionizing osteoarthritis treatment and prevention

Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common disease of the musculoskeletal system, which approximately affects every fourth of us at some point of our lives.

It’s a degenerative joint-disease that currently cannot be cured.

If nothing is done, the disease will just continue developing, which may have a significant impact on a person’s quality of life and ability to perform from daily activities.

As we cannot cure the damaged knee cartilage, the most beneficial treatment would simply be to prevent the disease from developing.

However, currently clinicians do not know who will get the disease or when, especially when the knee is still healthy. Which causes that the disease usually develops inevitably and that the treatments are often started too late.

Algoa Progress

Algoa Progress is an innovative decision-support tool for personalized treatment planning of osteoarthritis. The AI-driven solution is based on almost 20 years of research by world leading scientists in the field of osteoarthritis. It is a novel approach combining information from clinical imaging and personal risk factors in a patient specific computational model of the knee joint.

Algoa Progress predicts and quantifies the patient's OA risk evolution and provides a visual demonstration of the prediction. In addition to prediction of the progression of osteoarthritis, it is the world’s first solution to simulate and visualize the effects of treatment interventions. This enables personalized treatment planning and help medical experts in their decision-making to provide the most effective prevention strategies.
