Orthometrix, Inc. Announces 82% Increase in Quarterly Sales and Forms Orbasone Mobile LLC to Provide ESWT Service to Podiatric and Orthopedic Practices.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- Orthometrix, Inc. (OTCBB: OMRX) announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006 increased by 82% to $711,956 compared with $391,484 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005. Gross Margin for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006 increased to 60% compared with 57% for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005. The net loss for the second quarter of 2006 increased to $396,077 compared with a 2005 second-quarter net loss of $341,734 and was primarily due to increased sales and marketing expenses resulting from the hiring of six regional Orbasone sales managers.

Revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 increased by 69% to $1,460,022 compared with $862,464 for the six month period ended June 30, 2005. Gross Margin for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 increased to 65% compared with 60% for the six month period ended June 30, 2005. The net loss for the first half of 2006 decreased to $649,244 compared with a 2005 first-half net loss of $958,599.

The Company also announced that it formed Orbasone Mobile, LLC ("Orbasone Mobile"), as a wholly-owned subsidiary, to offer health care providers, such as those with Podiatric and Orthopedic practices, access to its new Orbasone(TM) Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy ("ESWT") Pain Relief System to treat their patients in their surgical suite or simply in their offices. As part of this new offering, Orbasone Mobile will also provide complete insurance billing services to its clients through the continuation of its agreement with Health Reimbursement Solutions, Inc. Orbasone Mobile is starting its operations with 6 Orbasone units offering treatment in 6 regions of the United States, not only in Ambulatory Surgical Centers but also in the doctor's office. The Orbasone(TM) received market approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in August 2005 for the treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis (foot pain).

Reynald Bonmati, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Orthometrix, commented, "We are very pleased with our sales for the first half of 2006 which came close to the sales we booked for the entire year 2005. A new Category III Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) Code became effective as of January 1 for Medicare coverage of ESWT procedures. Although the availability of Medicare reimbursement generally leads additional private health insurance carriers to cover a new procedure, it typically also has the effect of reducing the reimbursement rates offered by the insurance carriers that already cover such procedure. This situation is already exerting pressure on the ESWT mobile service industry which uses equipment that is 2 to 3 times more expensive than our Orbasone and too large to be used in the doctor's office. This can be a real opportunity for our Company to enter that segment of the market. Orbasone Mobile LLC will now provide participating doctors the opportunity to increase their practice by offering a non-invasive pain management procedures right in their office. Unlike other mobile service companies, because our Company also manufactures the Orbasone, we are afforded the flexibility to offer the largest clients of Orbasone Mobile the opportunity to purchase their own ESWT system at an attractive price. Orbasone Mobile will either develop into a separate stand-alone entity or continue to be a subsidiary of the Company and serve as a strong marketing tool for our Orbasone system. It is a win-win situation."

Orthometrix, Inc. markets, sells and services several musculoskeletal product lines used in pharmaceutical research, diagnostic and monitoring of bone and muscle disorders, sports medicine, rehabilitative medicine, physical therapy and pain management.
