Global index of the imaging core labs (ICLs) that sponsors and CROs rely on, filterable by type, region, and specialty. There's no comprehensive key to this field online, so we built one.
Medical imaging (CT, MRI, PET, SPECT, X-ray, DXA, and more) plays an increasingly central role in the development of new therapeutics — and with it, the imaging core lab has become an essential partner for any imaging-dependent trial. Below is a global directory of ICLs, listing each lab's headquarters or flagship institution, affiliation type, specialty focus, and website. Where a lab is marked Multiple, it works across more than one indication.
Compiled from Bracken's imaging research and reviewed for known mergers and rebrands (e.g., Calyx and Invicro now operate as Perceptive; Keosys is Banook Group's imaging arm; Bioclinica is now Clario). The core lab landscape shifts often — if you spot an entry that needs updating, let us know.
