Study Rescue

Study Rescue & Imaging Core Lab Transfer

Missed read timelines, reader turnover and slow query resolution can put a trial's database lock at risk. When that happens, changing core labs can be the fastest way to get back on schedule.

Intrinsic Imaging takes over imaging studies already in progress. We move your data, align your charter and bring in experienced readers, so the transition is controlled and fully documented.

Our quality system has passed three FDA inspections with zero 483 observations and holds five BSI ISO certifications, so your rescued study stays inspection-ready.

How a Core Lab Transfer Works

Step 1

Image archive transfer

We receive your existing image archive and read data, verify completeness and de-identification, and load it into our systems.

Step 2

Charter harmonization

Our physicians review your imaging charter and read design, then align them so earlier and new reads remain consistent.

Step 3

Reader mobilization

Subspecialty readers from our 1,000+ physician network are trained on your protocol and criteria before reads resume.

Step 4

Site re-engagement

Sites receive updated acquisition guidelines and upload instructions, with support from our team through the transition.

No reader bottlenecks

Turnaround Time & Reader Redundancy

Deep reader bench

With 1,000+ credentialed physicians, reads are balanced across qualified readers, so a trial never depends on one person.

Agreed turnaround times

Standard and expedited read turnaround times are agreed with you up front and tracked throughout the study.

Discrepancy & adjudication workflows

Reader disagreements are flagged and sent to an independent adjudicator, with full traceability.
