3 terms
magnetic resonance spectroscopy medical
"Nociscan uses Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) to extract and quantify"
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a noninvasive imaging technique that uses the same physics as MRI to measure the chemical makeup of tissues, producing a “fingerprint” of molecules such as metabolites instead of detailed anatomical pictures. Investors care because this biochemical information can serve as a diagnostic marker, a drug-development endpoint, or a regulatory biomarker—helping assess clinical value, shorten trials, and guide commercial potential for medical products.
chemical biomarkers medical
"to extract and quantify chemical biomarkers associated with disc pain"
Chemical biomarkers are measurable molecules in blood, urine, tissue or other body samples that act like signals of a biological condition—for example indicating disease, response to a treatment, or exposure to a toxin. Investors care because these markers can make diagnostics, drug development and regulatory approval faster and more certain, much like a dashboard light helps a driver decide whether to stop for repairs; reliable biomarkers can reduce trial risk, shorten timelines and create commercial markets for tests and targeted therapies.
lumbar spine medical
"distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine"
The lumbar spine is the lower portion of the backbone made up of the largest vertebrae and cushioning discs that carry most of the body's weight and allow bending and twisting; think of it as the central support beams and flexible joints of your lower back. It matters to investors because this area is a frequent source of pain and injury, driving demand for medical devices, surgeries, drugs, imaging and rehabilitation services that can affect healthcare company revenue and regulatory risk.

  • Partnership brings Nociscan for chronic low back pain to one of the nation's leading neurosurgery and spine care networks
  • Goodman Campbell Brain & Spine is recognized nationally for its role in neurosurgery training and clinical research
  • Availability of Nociscan in Indiana reflects Company’s focus on expansion and adding to its growing base of provider sites across the country

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aclarion, Inc., (“Aclarion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ACON, ACONW), a commercial-stage healthcare technology company leveraging biomarkers and proprietary augmented intelligence (AI) algorithms to help physicians identify the location of chronic low back pain, today announced that its Nociscan platform is now available at Goodman Campbell Brain & Spine at Ascension St. Vincent, marking the first site in Indiana to offer the technology.

The addition of Goodman Campbell Brain & Spine extends Aclarion's provider network into a new state and aligns the Company with a center that is consistently ranked among the best in the nation. As a leader in neurosurgery training and clinical research, the physician specialists are recognized for their commitment to cutting-edge approaches and treatment, and data-driven outcome measures to improve the health of their patients.

"Every patient we see with chronic low back pain deserves a clear answer about where their pain is coming from before we talk about treatment. For years, MRI alone hasn't been able to give us that answer, it shows us the anatomy, but not which disc is actually the source of pain,” said Dr. Eric A. Potts, Neurosurgeon and Spine Specialist at Goodman Campbell Brain & Spine and past Chair of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons/Congress of Neurological Surgeons Joint Section on Disorders of the Spine and Peripheral Nerves. “Bringing Nociscan into our practice reflects the standard we hold ourselves to at Goodman Campbell: if there's a tool that gives our patients and our team better information, we want to be among the first to offer it."

Nociscan uses Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) to extract and quantify chemical biomarkers associated with disc pain. The objective, non-invasive insights provided by Nociscan enable physicians to distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine -- information that MRI cannot provide. Nociscan provides critical insights into the location of a patient’s low back pain and demonstrates a 97% surgical success rate when all Nociscan-positive discs are treated.

"Goodman Campbell's reputation for clinical excellence and its role in training the next generation of neurosurgeons make them an important addition to the Nociscan network," said Brent Ness, CEO of Aclarion. "The addition of each new site reflects the growing momentum behind Nociscan adoption as we work to bring this technology within reach of more patients living with chronic low back pain.”

Chronic low back pain is a global healthcare problem with approximately 266 million people worldwide suffering from degenerative spine disease and low back pain.

The Company is first addressing the chronic low back pain market with Nociscan, the first, evidence-supported, SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. Through a cloud connection, Nociscan receives magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data from an MRI machine for each lumbar disc being evaluated. In the cloud, proprietary signal processing techniques extract and quantify chemical biomarkers demonstrated to be associated with disc pain. Biomarker data is entered into proprietary algorithms to indicate 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.  For more information, please visit www.aclarion.com.
