The mission of Image X is to improve lives by inventing and advancing new ways to image and treat disease. We focus on developing and improving anatomic and physiologic cancer imaging methods and integrating these innovations into adaptive medical therapeutic systems, particularly radiation therapy.

A critical step in applying our technology is the translation of our technology through clinical trials. We are involved in clinical trials where Prof Keall,  Image X Institute members and the University of Sydney may hold patents and other intellectual property and may benefit financially from the results of the trials.

We also partner in clinical trials with external companies, including start-ups from our laboratory, in trials where we may benefit financially from the results of the trials.  Image X Institute members work with the University to identify and best manage these conflicts.
