About ENDRA Life Sciences Inc.

ENDRA Life Sciences is the pioneer of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS^®), a ground-breaking technology, which characterizes tissue like MRI, but at 1/50^th the cost and at the point of patient care. TAEUS^® is designed to work in concert with over 700,000 ultrasound systems in use globally today. TAEUS^® is initially focused on the measurement of fat in the liver as a means to assess and monitor Steatotic Liver Disease (SLD) (formerly known as NAFLD-NASH), a chronic liver spectrum that affects over two billion people globally, and for which there are no practical diagnostic tools. Beyond the liver, ENDRA is exploring several other clinical applications of TAEUS^®, including visualization of tissue temperature during energy-based surgical procedures.
