MedX Health Announces Regulatory Approval in Australia


MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 25, 2014) - MedX Health Corp. ("MedX" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:MDX) announced that it has received certification by the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods ("ARTG") for its SIAscopy skin screening technology in Australia.

"This important approval allows us to sell our SIAscopy products into Australia, where unfortunately there are two to three times the skin cancer rates compared with North America" commented Rob von der Porten, President and CEO. "The awareness of skin cancer and the need for regular assessments of moles, lesions and other suspicious skin abnormalities is very high in Australia, to the point where it is considered routine within medical practices. Expanding our sales into Australia will augment our progress in Europe, which began earlier this year after gaining the CE Mark."

MedX has established an exclusive distribution arrangement with one of the largest medical device distributors in Australia to market SIAscopy. The Company will begin shipping units to its distribution partner in the fourth quarter.

According to Cancer Council Australia, physicians perform more than one million patient consultations for skin cancer annually. MedX's SIAscopy skin analysis technology is fast, non-invasive and painless, ideally suited to provide a physician with a tool to assist in making a correct assessment of a patient's skin condition in real time.
