ENDRA Life Sciences Activates TAEUS System to Initiate Clinical Study at LMU University Hospital in Germany

Scans first patient in post-CE mark clinical study with Munich’s center of excellence in Europe’s largest healthcare market

ANN ARBOR, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ: NDRA), a pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS^®), announces the activation of a post market clinical study and first patient scanned with the TAEUS liver system at LMU University Hospital in Munich, one of the leading medical research centers in Europe.

LMU University Hospital is conducting a post market clinical study to collect data to assess TAEUS’ liver fat measurement capabilities against the gold standard MRI-PDFF test. This study is intended to collect real-world clinical evidence to further establish the utility of the TAEUS system for metabolic disease management. LMU researchers plan to present the findings of the study at future medical congresses followed by a peer-reviewed publication.

​​“LMU University Hospital is one of Europe's most highly regarded and influential academic research institutions and we are delighted to commence this partnership. This collaboration is expected to build upon ENDRA's growing portfolio of clinical data and support the company’s FDA De Novo submission targeted for mid-2025. Further, we believe the data will support the adoption of TAEUS technology as the reliable and accurate biomarker for liver fat, marking it as a first strategic step into Germany's healthcare market, the largest in Europe," stated Alexander Tokman, Acting Chief Executive Officer of ENDRA and Chairman of the Board.

About ENDRA Life Sciences Inc.

ENDRA Life Sciences is the pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS^®), a ground-breaking technology that characterizes tissue similar to an MRI, but at 1/40^th the cost and at the point of patient care. TAEUS^® is initially focused on the non-invasive assessment of fatty tissue in the liver. Steatotic liver disease (SLD, formerly known as NAFLD-NASH) is a chronic liver disease spectrum that affects over two 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 non-invasive visualization of tissue temperature during energy-based surgical procedures.
