About the Clinical Development of Perimeter B-Series OCT with ImgAssist AI

Perimeter is advancing the development of its proprietary, next gen “ImgAssist” artificial intelligence (AI) technology under its ATLAS AI project, which is made possible, in part, by a US$7.4 million grant awarded by the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT). A multi-center, randomized, two-arm clinical trial is underway to measure the effectiveness of the breakthrough-device-designated Perimeter B-Series OCT + ImgAssist AI in reducing the number of unaddressed positive margins in breast lumpectomy procedures when used in addition to standard intraoperative margin assessment. Approximately 300 patients undergoing breast conservation surgery across eight U.S. clinical sites will participate in the pivotal study led by Principal Investigator, Dr. Alastair Thompson at Baylor College of Medicine, with study enrollment anticipated by the end of 2022.
