Conference Call/Webcast Today at 5 pm ET

TORONTO and DALLAS, Nov. 14, 2023 /CNW/ - Perimeter Medical Imaging AI, Inc. (TSXV: PINK) (OTC: PYNKF) (FSE: 4PC) ("Perimeter" or the "Company") – a commercial-stage medical technology company – today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023 and provided a corporate update.

Quarterly Highlights

Adrian Mendes, Perimeter's Chief Executive Officer stated, "I am pleased with the progress made across the business this past quarter, with a particular focus on advancing our next-gen AI tech currently in clinical development. Based on feedback from the FDA, we successfully introduced improved AI into the ongoing clinical trial evaluating the use of Perimeter B-Series OCT combined with AI during breast conservation surgery. We have now added three additional sites to further support patient enrollment, and we have also integrated a planned interim analysis into the clinical trial protocol. This read-out will provide us with the optionality to conclude the trial early to begin preparation of regulatory submissions supporting market clearance, or alternatively continue the trial to potentially build a stronger data package from additional subjects. Ultimately, we are driven to provide new technologies that assist surgeons with 'real-time' margin assessment in the operating room. Many physicians support our belief that combining AI with high-resolution imaging has the potential to become a new standard of care during breast conservation surgery."

Mr. Mendes continued, "I am also excited to report that Perimeter has been shortlisted to advance to the next stage of a grant funding program sponsored by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health, or ARPA-H, under its Precision Surgical Interventions program, an important Biden Cancer Moonshot initiative. We were also thrilled to see that ARPA-H selected Dallas as one of three regional hubs in its $2.5 billion health innovation network."
