We bring research-grade
diffusion MRI to the clinic.
DICEtech is a 2024 spin-off of University of Verona, Italy. We build the bridge between 12+ years of academic work on tissue microstructure — and routine radiology practice.
Mission
Modern diffusion MRI can quantify the microstructure of living tissue at millimetre scale. The radiology reading room has not yet seen any of it.
We close that gap. The same scan; an order of magnitude more information; the same workflow. Compatible with 1.5 T and 3 T scanners from any vendor.
7 lead clinics across Italy and UK. Class IIa MDR submission opened.
