Orthopedics Today Article Emphasizes Evolution to Orthopedic Surgery Ushered in by the Dominion's 3D Real-Time Imaging

Imaging3's Flagship Product Featured in Respected Orthopedic Trade Publication


BURBANK, Calif., Aug. 2, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Imaging3(tm), Inc. (OTCBB:IMGG), developer of a breakthrough medical imaging device that produces 3D medical diagnostic images of virtually any part of the human body in real-time, today reports that the company is featured in an article in the August issue of well-known trade publication, Orthopedics Today. The article emphasized Imaging3's innovative technology, The Dominion(tm), and its potential to change the way orthopedic surgery is performed.

Highlighted in the "Products & Services" section, the editorial focuses on The Dominion's ability to increase speed and accuracy in orthopedic procedures while still significantly decreasing costs. With current technology, orthopedic surgeons must realign the patient, imaging equipment, and/or imaging table throughout various stages of the procedure. The Dominion's ability to reduce or eliminate these steps through instantaneous three-dimensional imaging in the surgical process speeds the operation, thereby decreasing the time the patient must be kept under anesthesia and reducing recovery time. The real-time 3D imagery will allow doctors to view the spine and extremities with vastly improved clarity and detail, leading to a more accurate diagnosis and a straightforward surgery.

The article noted further advantages of Imaging3's breakthrough technology, including the mobility of The Dominion and its ability to offer multiple imaging options. With the capacity to emulate CT and produce real-time 3D X-ray images, surgical teams will leverage their skills to the fullest, thereby improving the surgical outcome and containing the ever-escalating associated costs.

In addition to the nearly $9 billion annual orthopedics market(1), the company's Dominion is expected to usher in a radical shift in the way a multitude of medical fields are able to provide accelerated care to sufferers of various diseases. These fields include trauma care, cardiology, anesthetics and pain reduction, and peripheral vascular disorders. According to CEO Dean Janes, "The Dominion is going to ultimately change the way physicians work. It will change the way they see things."
