NOVA™, the most advanced technology to quantitatively and non-invasively measure blood flow using magnetic resonance imaging, will now be available to vascular patients in Europe. Developer and producer VasSol, Inc. this month announced their partnership with Italian distributor Tekmed Instruments.

Starting in October, Tekmed Instruments will offer NOVA™ (Non-invasive Optimal Vessel Analysis) Quantitative MRA, or QMRA, software for licensing throughout Italy. Tekmed, headquartered in Milan, has served as an exclusive distributor in the medical sector for 30 years.

NOVA™ is already available throughout the United States.
