Biophan Announces Availability of Corporate Video Reporting on Vanguard Research in Drug Elution and MRI Applications; Video Describes Company's Advanced Product Initiatives on Leading Edge of Multi-Billion-Dollar Biotechnology Markets.ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- Biophan Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :BIPH BIPH Bogomoletz Institute of Physiology (National Academy of Sciences; Ukraine) - News), a developer of next-generation biomedical technology Biomedical technology involves the application of engineering and technology principles to the domain of living or biological systems. Usually biomedical denotes a greater stress on problems related to human health and diseases. , has announced the availability of a new online video that offers an update on the Company's product development initiatives in the fast-growing multi-billion-dollar markets involving applications of drug-delivery and advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), noninvasive diagnostic technique that uses nuclear magnetic resonance to produce cross-sectional images of organs and other internal body structures. (MRI 1. (application) MRI - Magnetic Resonance Imaging. 2. MRI - Measurement Requirements and Interface. ) technologies. "The technologies we discuss in this video demonstrate some of the critical biomedical bi·o·med·i·cal adj. 1. Of or relating to biomedicine. 2. Of, relating to, or involving biological, medical, and physical sciences. markets that Biophan continues to innovate within," said Michael Weiner Michael Weiner can refer to:
"Additionally, the video goes into some detail about our new BiophanEurope division," continued Mr. Weiner. "That division, which contains a recently-acquired company in Germany formerly called AMRIS AMRIS Advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy AMRIS Army Modernization Resource Information System AMRIS Ad-Hoc Multicast Routing Protocol Utilizing Increasing Identification Numbers , is developing advanced solutions that allow active MRI imaging applications that make cardiovascular stents and vena cava filters Vena Cava Filter Definition A vena cava filter is a device inserted into a major vein to prevent a blood clot from entering the lungs. Purpose safe and effective to use within MRI systems. Vena cava filters capture blood clots Blood Clots Definition A blood clot is a thickened mass in the blood formed by tiny substances called platelets. Clots form to stop bleeding, such as at the site of cut. that can cause death or serious health complications, but under current technology, there is no effective imaging technology that can enable doctors to see inside the filters to determine if any clots have been captured. The MRI-based solutions we're developing at BiophanEurope appear to be the first and only technology that can enable accurate imaging of the inside of stents and vena cava filters."

About Biophan Technologies Biophan develops and markets cutting-edge technologies designed to make biomedical devices safe and compatible with the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment. The Company develops enabling technologies for implanted medical systems such as pacemakers and interventional surgical devices such as catheters, guidewires, stents, and other implants to allow them to be safely and effectively imaged under MRI. The technology is also being used to create MRI contrast agents, and has expanded to include other applications, such as drug delivery and power systems derived from body heat. Four Biophan technologies include advances in nanotechnology and thin film coatings. Committed to growth through innovation and developmental leadership, Biophan and its licensors now hold a total of 114 U.S. patents, licenses, or applications. This total includes 36 issued U.S. patents, 6 recently-allowed applications that will issue as patents in the near future, and 72 pending applications at various stages of examination at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, plus international applications. The patents cover areas including nanotechnology (nanomagnetic particle coatings), radio frequency filters, polymer composites, thermoelectric ther·mo·e·lec·tric also ther·mo·e·lec·tri·cal adj. Characteristic of, resulting from, or using electrical phenomena occurring in conjunction with a flow of heat. materials for batteries generating power from body heat, and photonics. Biophan has joint development arrangements with Boston Scientific (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :BSX BSX Bermuda Stock Exchange BSX Bandai Satellaview-X BSX Bicycle Super-X (Cross) - News) and NASA's Ames Center for Nanotechnology. Biophan's goal is to make all biomedical devices capable of safely and successfully working with MRI, and delivering other technologies which will improve quality of life.
