ISO 13485 Recertification Affirms Quality Standards Supporting ENDRA’s CE Mark

ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ: NDRA), a pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS^®), announces receipt of Medical Device Quality Management System ISO 13485:2016 and EN ISO 13485:2016 recertification, under Certificate Number MD 697226 from the British Standards Institution (BSI). This recertification affirms the company's Quality Management System (QMS) meets all current regulatory requirements specific to the medical device industry. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has proposed adopting the ISO 13485:2016 standard, in an effort to harmonize the FDA Quality System Regulation, 21 CFR 820, with the international standard.

''This ISO 13485:2016 recertification validates the foundation and sustainability of our QMS, upon which we obtained CE Marking. It further demonstrates the commitment of our global cross-functional team to uphold the highest quality product development and manufacture of our TAEUS System to meet customer and international regulatory standards,'' stated Amy Sitzler, ENDRA’s Vice President of Engineering. “This designation is testament to our commitment to quality as we advance our strategy to develop optimized hybrid ultrasound and thermoacoustic imaging systems, with our proprietary TAEUS technology in areas with unmet clinical needs.''

The ISO 13485:2016 certification is an internationally recognized standard for the medical device industry and establishes the requirements for a comprehensive system, covering the design, manufacture and distribution of medical devices. ENDRA's ISO 13485:2016 certification scope includes the design, development, manufacture, service, installation and distribution of thermo acoustic enhanced ultrasound medical devices and accessories.

About ENDRA Life Sciences Inc.

ENDRA Life Sciences is the pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS^®), a ground-breaking technology being developed to visualize tissue like MRI, but at 1/50th the cost and at the point of patient care. TAEUS^® is designed to work in concert with 400,000 cart-based ultrasound systems in use globally today. TAEUS^® is initially focused on the measurement of fat in the liver as a means to assess and monitor Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), chronic liver conditions that affect over one billion people globally, and for which there are no practical diagnostic tools. Beyond the liver, ENDRA is exploring several other clinical applications of TAEUS^®, including visualization of tissue temperature during energy-based surgical procedures.
