Dr. Uribe Becomes Aclarion’s 3^rd KOL With Access to a Diagnostic Center Authorized to Perform Nociscans

BROOMFIELD, CO - (NewMediaWire) - January 22, 2024 - Aclarion, Inc. (“Aclarion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ACON, ACONW), a healthcare technology company that is leveraging biomarkers and proprietary augmented intelligence algorithms to help physicians identify the location of chronic low back pain, announced today that Nociscan is now available in the greater Phoenix, AZ market at the Barrow Neurological Institute with Dr. Juan Uribe and other area physicians treating chronic low back pain.

Dr. Uribe's practice emphasizes a comprehensive approach to treating the spine and applying minimally invasive spine surgery to complex degenerative disease. “I have dedicated my life to alleviating the pain and suffering associated with spinal disorders. Low back pain is an extremely debilitating condition that lacks a noninvasive tool helping me identify the location of a patient's pain. I am pleased Nociscan is now available in the greater Phoenix market, which will help us continue to advance more accurate diagnosis and treatments for low back pain,” said Dr. Uribe.

Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is a leading cause of opioid addiction in the U.S. and the single most expensive diagnosis in the United States. Aclarion’s Nociscan solution is the first evidence-supported SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. Nociscan objectively quantifies chemical biomarkers demonstrated to be associated with disc pain. Biomarker data is entered into proprietary algorithms to highlight if a disc may be a source of pain. When used with other diagnostic tools, Nociscan provides critical insights into the location of a patient’s low back pain, giving physicians clarity to optimize treatment strategies.

“Dr. Uribe is a renowned neurosurgeon at one of the world’s leading neurological institutes, Barrow,” said Ryan Bond, Chief Strategy Officer of Aclarion. “Throughout Dr. Uribe’s career he has rejected norms and advanced the treatment of chronic low back pain through research, education and adopting innovation. We are pleased that he and the medical community in Phoenix will now have access to Nociscan.”

Aclarion recently announced the completion of the 1,000^th commercial Nociscan exam and pointed to additional KOLs gaining access to MRIs as a key catalyst for supporting scan volume growth in 2024. Activation of the Phoenix market represents the first such key catalyst of 2024.
