An all-in-one ophthalmology imaging solution

The Flywheel medical imaging platform gives ophthalmology researchers streamlined workflows, the ability to harmonize data from disparate locations and facilitates, and validated research for clinical trials and AI development.

By providing researchers an end-to-end medical imaging platform, Flywheel helps life sciences and clinical researchers:

  • Save resources by allowing remote data uploading and sharing.
  • Curate, classify and convert data to DICOM.
  • Integrate imaging data across diverse formats and quality levels.
  • Keep data secure while increasing access on a HIPAA-compliant platform.
  • Accelerate workflows with ophthalmology-centric algorithms.
  • Get audit-ready with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance functionality.

Reducing costs and time spent on manual tasks in drug development

Several pharmaceutical company leverage Flywheel to conduct annotation campaigns for generating ground truth data essential for AI development. Flywheel empowers these organizations to centralize data collection, automate curation workflows, define cohorts and execute customized reader studies for retinal layer segmentations—all within a single platform. This approach removes data duplication, simplifies workflows, and ensures efficient and consistent data handling. As a result, companies have been able to reduce annotation campaign timelines from months to days and achieve cost savings of up to 90%.

Fueling change in clinical research with advanced annotation capabilities

An academic medical center was working with an antiquated, siloed imaging management system that didn’t allow for data standardization or centralization. With Flywheel’s annotation capabilities, they were able to provide standardized, high-quality qualitative and quantitative reads of color fundus and OCT images (e.g., retinal thickness). These reads include eligibility scans and longitudinal assessments across multiple imaging modalities via a 2+1 adjudication paradigm.
