Polarean Imaging Plc
("Polarean" or the "Company")
Featured company at 2023 ATS Respiratory Innovation Summit
Polarean also exhibiting at 2023 American Thoracic Society
annual meeting, providing a great opportunity to showcase XENOVIEW
technology to other pulmonary care innovators and providers
Polarean Imaging plc (AIM: POLX), the medical imaging technology
company, has been selected as one of the featured companies as a
poster presenter at the American Thoracic Society's ("ATS") 2023
Respiratory Innovation Summit ("RIS"), taking place 19-20 May in
Washington D.C.
The Respiratory Innovation Summit unites innovators, investors,
clinicians, and advocacy groups who work in the field of pulmonary
medicine. The meeting historically attracts more than 275 global
leaders representing all facets of the respiratory industry,
including start-ups, venture capital, government, academia, and
clinicians.
In addition to Polarean being selected as a featured company,
Bastiaan Driehuys, PhD, Polarean's Chief Scientific Officer, will
speak on lung imaging as a panel member in the "Biomarkers and
Innovation" session taking place in the afternoon of 20 May at
RIS.
Following the Respiratory Innovation Summit, Polarean will be
exhibiting at the 2023 ATS International Conference, taking place
21-24 May. Polarean team members, including Bastiaan Driehuys, PhD
(Chief Scientific Officer), and Alex Dusek (Chief Commercial
Officer) will be onsite to provide information on the technology
and also for networking. Polarean can be found at booth # 2137.
The ATS International Conference connects specialists in all
aspects of respiratory health - from clinicians to researchers to
educators , all of whom share a passion for improving patient care.
The conference showcases the latest advances and discoveries in
respiratory science, patient care, and global public health.
Richard Hullihen, CEO of Polarean, said: " The Respiratory
Innovation Summit and the American Thoracic Society's annual
conference provide a great venue to showcase XENOVIEW and the Xe
MRI platform with individuals interested in the opportunities to
collaborate. By creating greater awareness of our Xe MRI platform
amongst clinicians, regulators, investors, and potential pharma
industry partners, these events will be another step in advancing
our commercialization strategy by growing awareness and interest in
the different ways that our technology can move pulmonary care
forward."
Additionally, at ATS numerous clinicians and scientists will be
presenting on various research applications of Xe MRI. A listing of
these presentations, their title, author, and session time is
available below.

About Polarean (www.polarean.com)
The Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Polarean, Inc.
(together the "Group") are revenue-generating, medical imaging
technology companies operating in the high-resolution medical
imaging space. Polarean aspires to revolutionize pulmonary medicine
by bringing the power and safety of MRI to the respiratory
healthcare community in need of new solutions to evaluate lung
ventilation, diagnose disease, characterize disease progression,
and monitor response to treatment. By researching, developing, and
commercializing novel imaging solutions with a non-invasive and
radiation-free functional imaging platform. Polarean's vision is to
help address the global unmet medical needs of more than 500
million patients worldwide suffering with chronic respiratory
disease. Polarean is a leader in the field of hyperpolarization
science and has successfully developed the first and only
hyperpolarized MRI contrast agent to be approved in the United
States. On Dec. 23, 2022, the FDA granted approval for Polarean's
first drug device combination product, XENOVIEW(TM) (Xenon Xe(129)
hyperpolarized). Xe(129) MRI is also currently being studied for
visualization and quantification of gas exchange regionally in the
smallest airways of the lungs, across the alveolar tissue membrane,
and into the pulmonary bloodstream for future clinical
indications.
About The American Thoracic Society (www.thoracic.org)
The American Thoracic Society (ATS) improves global health by
advancing research, patient care, and public health in pulmonary
disease, critical illness, and sleep disorders. Founded in 1905 to
combat TB, the ATS has grown to tackle asthma, COPD, lung cancer,
sepsis, acute respiratory distress, and sleep apnea, among other
diseases.
XENOVIEW IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Warnings and Precautions
Risk of Decreased Image Quality from Supplemental Oxygen:
Supplemental oxygen administered simultaneously with XENOVIEW
inhalation can cause degradation of image quality. For patients on
supplemental oxygen, withhold oxygen inhalation for two breaths
prior to XENOVIEW inhalation, and resume oxygen inhalation
immediately following the imaging breath hold.
Risk of Transient Hypoxia: Inhalation of an anoxic gas such as
XENOVIEW may cause transient hypoxemia in susceptible patients.
Monitor all patients for oxygen desaturation and symptoms of
hypoxemia and treat as clinically indicated.
Adverse Reactions
Adverse Reactions in Adult Patients: The adverse reactions (>
one patient) in efficacy trials were oropharyngeal pain, headache,
and dizziness. Adverse Reactions in Pediatric and Adolescent
Patients: In published literature in pediatric patients aged 6 to
18, transient adverse reactions were reported: blood oxygen
desaturation, heart rate elevation, numbness, tingling, dizziness,
and euphoria. In at least one published study of pediatric patients
aged 6 to 18 years, transient decrease in SpO2% and transient
increase in heart rate was reported following hyperpolarized xenon
Xe 129 administration. XENOVIEW is not approved for use in
pediatric patients less than 12 years of age.
