Equally important, it helps ensure that physicians and patients receive a consistent, high-quality Nociscan experience regardless of where or by whom the scan is performed." At a technical level, the patent covers Aclarion's method for precisely positioning the MRS sampling locations within the lumbar disc during scan setup. These capabilities are designed to improve MRS data reliability, simplify the acquisition workflow, and reduce scan variability across sites and MRI technologists. 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.
