Aclarion, Inc. announced that Eric Potts M.D., Neurosurgeon at Ascension St. Vincent Hospital and member of the Board of Directors at the Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine in Indianapolis, IN, will advise the company as a key opinion leader (KOL) nationally. Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is a leading cause of opioid addiction in the U.S. and the single most expensive diagnosis in the United States.

Aclarion's Nociscan solution is the first evidence-supported SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. Nociscan objectively quantifies chemical biomarkers demonstrated to be associated with disc pain. Biomarker data is entered into proprietary algorithms to highlight if a disc may be a source of pain.

When used with other diagnostic tools, Nociscan provides critical insights into the location of a patient's low back pain, giving physicians clarity to optimize treatment strategies. Dr. Potts is chair-elect of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons and the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (AANS/CNS) Joint Section on the Disorders of the Spine and Peripheral Nerves. He has been a long-standing Executive Committee member of this organization.

Dr. Potts is passionate about leading-edge technologies and equally focused on improving quality outcomes.
