Nearly 375 million people worldwide live with knee osteoarthritis¹, one of the leading causes of disability in older adults. Precise measurements of leg alignment and leg length are important for diagnosis, surgical planning and post-operative assessment. Yet current imaging workflows are time-consuming and subject to reader variability. Full-leg radiographs are the clinical standard for measuring leg alignment but they often require taking multiple images and stitched them together. Even slight rotation of the leg during imaging can affect measurement accuracy and may require repeat X-rays.
IB Lab Lama analyzes full-leg radiographs in under 20 seconds2* and delivers 20+ features from long-leg, knee and lateral knee radiographs. It streamlines clinical workflows by predicting the leg axis directly from AP knee X-rays — giving an alternative to tedious full-leg imaging — while automatically detecting and correcting for patient rotation** to support accurate planning and documentation.

IB Lab Lama 3.0 predicts leg axis parameters directly from an AP knee X-ray — giving an alternative to long-leg radiographs. This reduces acquisition time, potential stitching errors and lowers the imaging burden without compromising clinical information.
IB Lab Lama 3.0 detects and corrects for patient rotation during image acquisition and provides corrected values within an additional report.**

IB Lab LAMA is a fully-automated AI-driven software device for processing full leg anteroposterior (AP) radiographs and anteroposterior (AP) and lateral (LAT) radiographs of the knee. It is designed to leverage deep-learning-based algorithms to detect anatomical features in order to aid users in the assessment of leg length discrepancy, quantitative lower limb alignment and knee stability parameters. It should not be used in-lieu of full patient evaluation or solely relied upon to make or confirm a diagnosis. All AI-generated measurements and morphological insights must be reviewed by a healthcare professional trained in radiology. IB Lab Lama is intended to be used by healthcare professionals trained in radiology. IB Lab Lama is intended to be used on patients of 8+ years (Full Leg AP radiographs) or 18+ years (AP and LAT Knee radiographs).

** Post-operative rotation correction is currently under development and subject to completion of conformity assessment under the MDR. For the current status, contact IB Lab GmbH or refer to the latest labeling documents in the customer portal at https://support.imagebiopsy.com.
ImageBiopsy AI software is highly accurate and efficient within our PACS system, which provides valuable information on the status of the knee along the continuum of chondrosis to arthrosis.
The integration of the AI solutions by ImageBiopsy Lab into our RIS and PACS is easy and well done. It is fun to work with and the clarity of the visualized report is an ideal support for our patient consultation.
AI-based solutions reduce the amount of work and the findings become more accurate. An objective value is given which can be used both for monitoring and forecasting the progress. We offer something that others don’t have.
Exact diagnosis and reproducible follow-up exams are indispensable for a successful osteoarthritis therapy. Software-based methods can assist the physician in the therapy management and adjustment process.
