ENDRA Life Sciences Enhances TAEUS® System Intellectual Property Portfolio with Issuance of 28th U.S. Patent
June 28 2022 - 8:00AM
Business Wire
ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ: NDRA), a pioneer of
Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS®), announces that the
United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued a new ENDRA
patent, U.S. Patent No. 11369272 (the ‘272 patent) titled
“Broadband Applicator for Thermoacoustic Signal Generation.”
The ‘272 patent protects TAEUS’ radiofrequency (RF) applicator
for optimizing the delivery of RF energy to tissue. Notably, the RF
applicator utilizes a broad bandwidth, which reduces TAEUS’
sensitivity to tissue variation and temperature. The ‘272 patent
will serve as the parent patent for future patent applications
prosecuted in China and Europe.
“We are pleased with the issuance of our 28th patent in the
United States, which supports our strategy to develop optimized
thermoacoustic imaging systems, and to broaden the potential
applications for our proprietary TAEUS technology in areas with
unmet clinical needs,” stated ENDRA's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer Francois Michelon. “We continue to strengthen our
intellectual property (IP) portfolio to protect our novel
technology in key global markets. Our IP portfolio currently
includes 48 patents issued globally.”
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
over 500,000 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
inflammation (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. For
