Competitive Landscape
CND competes in the neurodiagnostic space with companies developing alternative biomarkers for synucleinopathies, including blood-based assays (e.g., Amprion, Roche), CSF tests, and advanced imaging techniques. Its primary competitive advantage is the direct pathological visualization of the target protein via a minimally invasive procedure.
