The Clarity study will assess the clinical and economic value of Aclarion’s Nociscan in spine surgery. The medtech company reached full funding for the trial with nearly $20 million, according to a Feb. 4 news release. 

Nicholas Theodore, MD, of Baltimore-based Johns Hopkins, is leading the trial. Patients who are scheduled to have surgery for 1- or 2- level discogenic low back pain will be included, and they’ll all have a Nociscan before their procedures. 

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
