OsteoDx develops an investigational, radiation-free device that measures bone mechanics noninvasively through its Cortical Bone Mechanics Technology (CBMT™). The Athens, Ohio company was co-founded by Brian Clark, a musculoskeletal health researcher, and its platform uses controlled vibration at the forearm to assess properties such as bending stiffness and flexural rigidity. CBMT has received more than $10 million in NIH-supported research and development and is intended for research and clinical-study settings rather than routine clinical use.

• Bertec CorporationBorn from an Ohio State engineering professor’s need for a better force plate, Columbus-based Bertec Corporation has designed and manufactured research-grade and clinical biomechanical equipment and software since 1987. Its work spans precision force measurement, instrumented treadmills, balance assessment and immersive visual-reality systems used to study human movement, support rehabilitation and analyze athletic performance. Bertec also maintains a formal medical-device quality system certified to ISO 13485:2016 and EU MDR 2017/745 Annex IX.COLUMBUS, OH
• OptoVibronex, LLCOptoVibronex develops the patented OptoScope 2.0, a non-invasive medical imaging and material-characterization device that combines optical coherence tomography with vibrational analysis to map tissue structure and mechanical properties. Based in Mount Bethel, the company is focused particularly on dermatology and aesthetic dermatology, with potential uses in virtual biopsy, wound healing and implant assessment. Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer Dr. Fred Silver brings 35 years as a Rutgers pathology professor, more than 30 patents and over 200 publications on biological materials and their mechanics.MT.

  CyberLogic, IncBrooklyn-based CyberLogic, Inc. develops ultrasound technologies spanning the FDA-approved UltraScan 650 bone densitometer and the Wave series of computational modeling software. Its radiation-free UltraScan 650 measures bone mineral density at the 1/3 radius in under 10 seconds, while Wave2000, Wave2500 and Wave3000 simulate two- and three-dimensional viscoelastic wave propagation for engineering and research. The company’s work grows out of more than 30 years of ultrasound research, peer-reviewed studies and patented technologies.NEW YORK, NY
• Sense Diagnostics, IncSense Diagnostics, Inc. develops non-invasive RF brain scanners designed to detect stroke and traumatic brain injury rapidly and monitor brain conditions in real time. Based in West Chester, Ohio, the company’s medical co-founders include specialists in emergency medicine and neurology, while its active RF headsets are developed and manufactured under an ISO 13485:2016-certified quality management system. Its investigational devices remain under development and are not yet cleared for clinical use in the United States.CINCINNATI, OH
