AION has a unique advantage in an established market through use of the hybrid imaging properties of its platform. Marking agents are used in a variety of surgical procedures to mark a site of interest for future relocation, monitoring and/or therapy.

Combinations of materials currently achieve visibility on several modalities. AION Markers provide significant advantages through controlled biodegradation, flexibility in size and design, and ease-of-use through conformance with a variety of application techniques.

Tissue marker applications include:

• Biopsy and surgical site markers
• Radiation therapy - for more precise and accurate targeting of tumors
• Marking agents which aid in the relocation or identification of objects/surgical implants inserted into the body
• Disease monitoring over extended periods of time

The imaging platform is uniquely versatile allowing incorporation into other surgical devices for visualization across all key imaging modalities.
