Genting TauRx Diagnostic Centre Sdn Bhd (GTD), a Malaysian based company, and its UK subsidiary, GT Diagnostics (UK) Ltd, jointly GT Diagnostics, today announced the release of HiPAL at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference. HiPAL is now available in the USA, UK, Malaysia and several countries in Europe with plans for a wider roll-out later this year.
HiPAL is a well-being app that empowers people to conveniently monitor their cognitive health in the comfort of their home. Currently compatible with tablets, the app is able to provide cognitive health results in a few minutes.
HiPAL has been tested in over 1000 users to date. It enables people to keep track of their memory performance over time. The easy-to-use and engaging app is the first of several tools that GTD is developing. Future tools, targeted at professional use, are currently in various stages of development.
Director of GTD, Dato’ Sri Tan Kong Han states “GT Diagnostics have been committed to the development of tools that change a patient’s pathway in Alzheimer’s Disease for more than a decade. With more and more treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease being developed and approved by regulators, tools enabling an early diagnosis become even more critical. While HiPAL is a well-being app, it is a significant first step of GT Diagnostics.”
“The release of HiPAL today is a major milestone for GT Diagnostics,” said Prof Bjoern Schelter, CEO of GT Diagnostics (UK) Ltd. “It is the first tool released by GTD. Professional tools that are designed to change the diagnostics landscape in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease will soon follow.”
