company focused on the commercialization of its PD2i
Analyzer™ , an innovative, non-invasive diagnostic
employing Vicor’s patented, proprietary PD2i
® nonlinear algorithm. Clinical use of the
PD2i Analyzer™ is supported by an expanding body of
literature documenting the PD2i ® nonlinear algorithm as a valid metric for risk
