Biophan and Siemens AG Announce a Declaration of Intent for Strategic Collaboration on Advanced Interventional MRI Technology.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- Biophan-Europe to Enter into Negotiations for a Joint R&D Agreement with Siemens Medical Solutions MRI Division

Biophan Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: BIPH)(FWB: BTN), a developer of next-generation medical technology, announced today a declaration of intent to enter into negotiations for a strategic research collaboration between Siemens' Medical Solutions MRI Division in Europe and Biophan Europe GmbH, designed to provide new solutions in the growing field of interventional MRI medicine and MRI-assisted minimally invasive surgeries.

The anticipated collaboration follows discussions between senior officers of the two companies to further develop and commercialize potentially complementary Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technologies. Biophan Europe is emerging as a major force of innovative solutions to enable effective MRI visualization of implanted medical devices, including heart valves, coronary and peripheral stents and vena cava filters.

Siemens' MRI Division, in turn, has developed a new MRI scanning technology with aperture configurations that could be highly complementary to Biophan's research and development program in this area, according to Dr. Michael Friebe, CEO of Biophan-Europe.

"Siemens new 1.5 Tesla Open Bore MR MAGNETOM Espree with Tim technology, with its wide aperture, will be ideally suited for MRI-related interventional procedures, combined with our own expertise under Chief Technology Officer Dr. Andreas Melzer in positioning and interventional support hardware form a solid foundation for partnership and further joint development of medically needed MRI scanning solutions," Dr. Friebe said.

Currently, many implantable and surgical devices comprised of metallic elements are contraindicated for use with MRI due to their potential undesirable interactions with the powerful electromagnetic fields generated by MRI systems. To extend MRI to patients with implantable devices, who currently are denied access to MRI visualization, Biophan has developed a variety of proprietary technologies to enable MR imaging to visualize the interiors of stents and other implants, and to enable the MRI-guided implantation of devices.

"This exciting opportunity for Biophan to collaborate with Siemens marks another milestone in Biophan's growing technological and marketplace leadership," said Michael Weiner, CEO of Biophan Technologies. "We're excited about this opportunity to work with a company of Siemens' well-recognized leadership in medical imaging."

About Biophan

Biophan develops and markets cutting-edge technologies for the medical device industry that provide competitive advantages. The Company's founding goal was to make all biomedical devices capable of safely and successfully working with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), problems which the Company has solved and begun to license to leading device manufacturers. The Company's mission has expanded to provide other technologies which will improve the delivery of healthcare. Biophan's technologies enable medical systems such as pacemakers, interventional surgical devices such as catheters and guidewires, and implants such as stents to be safely and/or effectively imaged under MRI. The Company is helping to commercialize the MYO-VAD(TM), a novel, MRI-compatible ventricular assist device which has significant potential to improve the treatment of many forms of acute and chronic heart disease. Other applications in development include drug delivery and power systems which derive energy from body heat. Committed to growth through innovation and developmental leadership, Biophan and its licensors now hold a total of 156 U.S. patents, licenses, or applications, plus international applications. This total includes 50 issued U.S. patents, 8 recently-allowed applications that will issue as patents in the near future, and 98 pending applications at various stages of examination at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patents cover areas including nanotechnology (nanomagnetic particle coatings), medical device designs, radio frequency filters, polymer composites, thermoelectric materials, and photonics. Biophan has joint development and licensing agreements with Boston Scientific Corporation and NASA's Ames Center for Nanotechnology. Biophan is traded on the OTC market under the symbol BIPH, and is also listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol BTN.
