When measuring muscle matters

Trusted across clinical trials, therapeutic research, and disease modeling

Springbok delivers high-resolution, MRI-based muscle health data used by pharmaceutical, biotech, and academic partners to accelerate development, refine trial design, and improve sensitivity to meaningful change.

FSHD & Neuromuscular Disease

Track disease progression at the individual muscle level and quantify therapeutic response in adult and pediatric cohorts. Capture subtle, heterogeneous changes over time to support endpoint development in rare disease trials.

Aging & Longevity Research

Detect early changes in muscle composition and monitor sarcopenia risk with anatomically precise, longitudinal data. Ideal for aging studies, lifestyle interventions, and vitality-focused programs.

Therapeutic Response Tracking

Assess structural muscle changes in response to GLP-1 therapies, anti-inflammatories, regenerative treatments, and metabolic interventions, using validated, repeatable imaging biomarkers.

Stratification & Trial Optimization

Use detailed muscle profiling to identify patient subgroups, refine eligibility criteria, and inform endpoint selection, improving consistency and sensitivity across trial arms.

Body Composition Analysis

Move beyond BMI and DXA. Springbok provides direct, MRI-based measurement of muscle volume, fat infiltration, and asymmetry, offering more clinically relevant, muscle-specific insight.

Disease Progression Modeling

Leverage longitudinal imaging to map progression pathways, predict functional decline, and validate early biomarkers across complex musculoskeletal and systemic conditions.

FDA 510(k) Clearance For MuscleView™

Validated. Scalable. Proven.

Backed by FDA-cleared technology, we deliver reliable, high-resolution muscle analysis across diverse populations and imaging environments.

Springbok is essential to our analytical pipeline as we process and critically assess the clinical trial data we are gathering in our efforts to reverse various aspects of aging. Springbok greatly enhances the accuracy and acuity of our outcomes, allowing us to more clearly understand how muscle and the body changes with IMMUNA over time.

We are excited to expand the scope of our work with Springbok Analytics. This technology can benefit an FSHD-focused clinical trial by giving us new perspectives on what can be modulated by drug therapy. The shorter exam duration will improve patient tolerability and Springbok's comprehensive individual muscle analytics get us closer to deriving personalized progression models.
