Aurora Spine Receives 2022 Best New Spine Technology Award for its DEXA bone density-matched spine implant innovation

CARLSBAD, Calif., Oct. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aurora Spine Corporation (“Aurora Spine” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ASG) (OTCQB: ASAPF), a designer and manufacturer of innovative medical devices that improve spinal surgery outcomes, today announced it is the recipient of the Annual Spine Technology Award for 2022 for its DEXA Technology™ Bone Density-Matched Interbody Implants.

Aurora’s DEXA Technology was recognized by RRY Publications LLC and the Orthopedics this Week magazine for its innovative technology developed to match spinal implants to patients’ bone density. The award will be handed out at the 37th Annual Meeting of the North American Spine Society (NASS) in Chicago, USA.

Aurora Spine’s first-of-its kind DEXA Technology™ is designed to match a patient’s bone density, promote bone in-growth while maintaining the biomechanical structure and bone support. This innovative idea is being utilized to manufacture implants that match the patient’s specific bone density based on a DEXA Scan/T-score allowing for the best bone fusion treatment and most favorable outcome.

Aurora Spine’s DEXA Technology™ is part of the company's advanced portfolio representing the future of Spinal and Orthopedic implants. Following fundamental principles of patent focused innovation, DEXA Technology™ was logically created and patented to combine the essential design benefits of conventional machining, 3D printing, and additive implant manufacturing.

"We are honored to receive this prestigious award and the orthopedic industry’s recognition for our work as our DEXA Technology™ is the world’s only innovation of its kind that provides surgeons with additional solutions in selecting the right implant for their patient," said Trent Northcutt, CEO of Aurora Spine.
