Deep Dive
New Targets for Treating Intracerebral Haemorrhage

This paper reviews emerging therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating secondary brain injury following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). It highlights promising interventions that go beyond surgery and hemostasis, focusing on areas such as the attenuation of iron toxicity, inhibition of ferroptosis, modulation of neuroinflammation, and reduction of perihematomal edema. New insights also suggest that the brain's lymphatic system may be a critical factor in hematoma clearance and edema management. Although some therapies have shown potential in early-phase trials, most findings remain preliminary, necessitating further research to translate them into clinical practice.

Frontiers in Innovation and Market
Securing FDA clearance, AI soon to assist with interpretation of spine MRI.

Remedy Logic is one of the first startups to introduce AI to radiology with clearance granted by the FDA. Starting up in 2020, it’s product was designed to assist radiologists with improving the safety and efficacy of patient care through detailed analysis of scans. The AI has been trained with millions of scans over multiple worldwide institutions and hopes to remain top in the spinal MRI market.
