EOS imaging Announces First Installation of EOS system in a Private German Medical Center

Regulatory News:

EOS Imaging (Paris:EOSI) (Euronext, FR0011191766 – EOSI), the pioneer in 2D/3D orthopedic medical imaging, today announced the installation of its EOS system at the private Medical Center MVZ Bad Sobernheim, Germany.

Medical Center MVZ Bad Sobernheim doctors specialize in orthopedic surgery, physical and rehabilitative medicine and more generally the medical care of musculo-skeletal pathologies. A section of MVZ specializes in the diagnosis and conservative treatment of spinal deformities, primarily scoliosis.

Dr. Christof Verres, a physical and rehabilitative medicine specialist at MVZ Sobernheim, said, "We are focused on the conservative treatment of spinal pathologies including scoliosis and specialize in the use of correction braces. Brace treatment progress is consistently monitored and adapted and requires frequent follow up exams. In less than 20 seconds, the EOS system provides a streamlined image of our patients in a functional standing position, all under greatly reduced radiation exposure. Short imaging times and low minimal exposure are great for our young patients, while the 3D will be incredibly helpful in treatment planning and in monitoring effectiveness.”

Marie Meynadier, CEO of EOS imaging, said, "We are pleased to install our first private EOS imaging installation in Germany at the Medical Center MVZ Bad Sobernheim. Conservative treatment of scoliosis with bracing was recently highlighted by a major study1 as beneficial for patients at risk of progression. Such treatments require frequent monitoring for which EOS provides the right low dose solution. We are also eager to help brace manufacturers and technicians design the most efficient bracing solutions based on EOS 3D information.”
