Studies & Publications
We at ROPCA are driven by one belief: every solution must stand on solid scientific ground. Every innovation we develop is not just a technological achievement – it is the result of countless hours of collaboration with clinicians, researchers, and patients, all united by the goal of improving lives.
Our work is guided by evidence. We test, we refine, and we validate – in real clinical environments where every data point matters. This is where technology meets human expertise, and where data transforms into better decisions for patients.

Scientific Studies
We continuously work with hospitals, universities, and research institutions to evaluate our technology in real-world clinical settings. Below you will find a curated selection of peer-reviewed publications and independent evaluations that confirm the diagnostic accuracy, efficiency, and usability of ARTHUR & DIANA.
