Angiodroid is Commitment

OUR COMMITMENT DEFINES US

At Angiodroid, commitment is more than a value—it is the principle inspiring every innovation in CO2 angiography.

We empower clinicians with safer, reliable, renal-friendly imaging solutions designed for the patients who need them most.

 

Commitment as a Corporate Standard

For Angiodroid, commitment is a discipline. It means delivering technologies that are scientifically sound, operationally efficient, and clinically meaningful. It also means understanding the daily challenges of vascular specialists—and responding with clarity, precision, and responsibility.

 

Commitment to Safer Imaging

Our goal is simple: to make safer imaging the global standard of care. Through advanced CO2 delivery systems and continuous research collaboration, we support clinical decision-making where iodinated contrast agents carry unnecessary risk.

  • Fully automated CO2 injection technology
  • Consistent, high-quality angiographic imaging
  • Optimized workflows for interventional teams
  • Scientific partnerships with hospitals worldwide

Commitment to Excellence

Excellence is not an achievement, but a continuous process. We invest in engineering, training, and clinical support to ensure that every Angiodroid system delivers reliability, reproducibility, and operational fluency.

 

Commitment to the CO₂mmunity

We stand with a global community of clinicians who believe in a safer approach to vascular imaging. Through shared experiences, evidence, and innovation, we are shaping a new culture of responsible angiography.

 

Commitment You Can Measure

Our commitment is tangible and measurable. We collaborate with clinical partners worldwide to improve outcomes and make safer imaging practices broadly available.

  • +800 clinical departments engaged in CO2 Angiography
  • Presence in 60+ countries
  • 10+ years of dedicated R&D in CO2 angiography
  • Thousands of procedures supported annually
Angiodroid is Evolution

 

WE'RE SHAPED BY EVOLUTION

From humble beginnings to increasingly ambitious goals, Angiodroid has been constanstly raising the bar of what's attainable.

Just like all living beings, we grow and adapt to become the best version of ourselves. 

 

From vision...

Protecting the more fragile patients and their kidneys is the main driver our company.

As ICM is one of the main casuses of CIN and allergic reactions, Carbon Dioxide has been used since 1971 as unique and most valid alternative to iodine contrast medium in angiography for its totally un-allergic and non-toxic qualities; this is what led Sebastiano Zannoli to found Angiodroid in 2013.

Since then, our mission has taken us all over the world.

 

 

...to execution...

Throughout the years, the imaging technology has improved to a point that already impressive CO₂ images are virtually indistiguishable from ICM ones. This is a comparison between ICM and CO₂:

 

...to future endeavors

As the world changes, so are we; we're proud to be part of some groundbreaking clinical trials that aim to make the world a safer and healthier place, including:

  • PeriPREVENT, investigating the short- and long-term impacts of contrast media on kidney health. With thousands of patients receiving contrast agents daily, this research is crucial in addressing the ongoing debate about their potential nephrotoxic effects;
  • KID trial, which will evaluate whether using CO instead of iodinated contrast reduces the risk of AKI and short-term renal function decline in this high-risk group.

In the meantime, as Angiodroid reached its 10th year, the company turned from Srl (Limited Liability Company) to SpA (Joint Stock Company); looking back, we went a long way. Looking forward, we still have a long way to go, and we'll always have, because evolution never stops.

Angiodroid is Preservation

 

PRESERVATION IS THE KEYWORD

Not all patients are the same: many of them are more fragile than others, and it's Angiodroid's goal to preserve their health in the safest way.

That is the meaning behind #SaveTheKidneys, our tagline.

 

 Recent data highlights a significant challenge: in 2021, 11% of the world's adult population—approximately 537 million people—were living with diabetes. This number is projected to rise to 12% (783 million people) by 2045. For many of these individuals, diabetes does not exist in isolation. It often brings complex comorbidities that require specialized care.   

The intersection of Diabetes, PAD and Kidney Health

The relationship between diabetes and other chronic conditions is profound. Notably:

  • Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): 40% of patients with PAD suffer from both diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
  • Diabetic Nephropathy: Roughly 107 million people worldwide are affected by type II diabetic nephropathy

These "fragile patients" require optimized treatment options to protect their overall health, particularly their kidney function.

 

A Safer Path in Endovascular Procedures

When diabetic patients with CKD must undergo endovascular procedures, the choice of contrast media is critical. Traditional iodinated contrast media can increase the risk of contrast-induced Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) offers a significant clinical advantage in these cases, because it avoids the risks associated with iodinated media.

 

Putting Patient First

In the month of World Kidney Day, the focus for us remains on providing "best-in-class care" for vulnerable patients all around the world.

By prioritizing kidney health and utilizing alternatives like CO₂ when appropriate, medical professionals can better serve the millions of people navigating the complexities of chronic diseases.

 

There is no motivation like preservation

KNOWLEDGE IN MOTION

At Angiodroid, innovation doesn’t stop at technology. It extends to people—how they learn, how they grow, and how they apply knowledge in real clinical environments.


Continuous training.

Real impact.

We believe that advancing CO₂ angiography requires more than delivering cutting-edge solutions. It requires empowering the professionals who use them.
That’s why continuous education is at the core of what we do.

Through hands-on workshops, live case discussions, and dedicated training programs, we support interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, and medical staff in mastering CO₂-based procedures, safely, effectively, and confidently.

From Theory to Practice 
Our workshops are designed to bridge the gap between knowledge and application.
  • Practical, case-based learning
  • Direct interaction with experienced clinicians
  • Real-world procedural insights
  • Focus on patient safety and outcomes
Every session is an opportunity to translate innovation into everyday clinical excellence.

Learning as a Shared Responsibility

Training at Angiodroid is not only external—it’s deeply internal.

Across our teams and departments, we foster a culture of continuous learning:

  • Cross-functional knowledge sharing
  • Ongoing technical and clinical education
  • Alignment between R&D, marketing, and field teams

Because when our people grow, the value we deliver to healthcare professionals grows with them.

Building Confidence in CO₂ Angiography

CO₂ is a powerful alternative in vascular imaging. But confidence in its use comes from experience, guidance, and repetition. 

That's why we created the ACDA Academy, a growing and varied community which involves not only cardiologists, radiologists and vascular surgeons, but also scholars, professors and experts in the field of angiography and radiological imaging.

This community was established to pursue three goals:

  • disseminate and improve the culture of Automated Carbon Dioxide Angiography and raise public awareness about this innovative methodology
  • strengthen and consolidate the collaboration between top level centers around the globe that can boast an advanced experience on this injection technique, thanks to a constant exchange of knowledge and opinions
  • support projects of clinical investigation all over the world through a scientific advisory board.

Angiodroid is Education

A continuous journey.
A shared mission.
A commitment to better outcomes through knowledge.
