Centre for Mobility and Joint Health
The Centre for Mobility and Joint Health, in the University of Calgary's Cumming School of Medicine, features state-of-the-art imaging, movement assessment and diagnostic equipment that can be used for clinical trials, clinical assessments or research studies.
About the MoJo
The MoJo is a hub, where physicians, basic scientists, biomedical engineers, patients and community health partners collaborate to keep Albertans healthy. Some of the equipment in the MoJo is only available in a few places in the world.
Facility services
Clinicians and researchers can access the equipment in the MoJo on a fee-for-service basis. Imaging technologies include x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (XtremeCT), dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), dual fluoroscopy and a bi-planar X-ray (EOS).
Research support
The MoJo isn't just for bone and joint research - there are currently over 60 active projects taking place in the MoJo, covering a wide range of disciplines including orthopaedics, rheumatology, paediatrics and hepatology.
Feedback from Researchers
Working with MoJo has been a game changer for our study participants. The fact that the MoJo facility is on site means they can have all their procedures done on the same day. The MoJo study staff is wonderful at accommodating and working with the study monitors, as well as maintaining the study records and everything else!
