BROOMFIELD, Colo., Nov. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aclarion, Inc. ("Aclarion" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:ACON, ACONW)), a healthcare technology company that is leveraging biomarkers and proprietary augmented intelligence (AI) algorithms to help physicians identify the location of chronic low back pain, announced the appointment of Dan Isherwood as UK Commercial Director.

"Dan's hire represents a significant commercial milestone for the Company," said Brent Ness, CEO of Aclarion. "The UK represents the first market where physicians can order Nociscan for their patients without navigating the friction around who is going to pay for the scan. With this barrier gone for over 5 million patients in the UK, combined with our partnership with The London Clinic, and now the addition of Dan as the Company's first dedicated hire focused on driving scan volume, we are excited to see how this builds on the strong early growth we are already seeing in the UK market."

Dan has vast experience in advanced imaging and spine technologies combined with a demonstrated ability to drive adoption of new clinical tools. Aclarion believes this positions him perfectly to accelerate the adoption of Nociscan in the UK. In his new role, Dan will execute Aclarion's UK commercial expansion strategy and strengthen relationships with physicians and imaging centers. His appointment follows the recent traction that has established Nociscan as an integral part of the care pathway for chronic low back pain at a leading London spine clinic which led to Nociscan being covered by three of the four top private insurers in the UK, reaching more than 5.2 million covered lives.

"I'm thrilled to join Aclarion at such an exciting time of growth," said Dan Isherwood, Commercial Director of Aclarion. "Having spent my career at the intersection of imaging and spine care, I see tremendous potential for Nociscan to bring new, objective insights to clinicians managing patients with chronic low back pain. I look forward to building on Aclarion's early success in the UK and helping more physicians access the information they need to make more informed clinical decisions and provide personalized patient care."

Dan joins Aclarion following an accomplished career that spans key roles in advanced imaging and spine technology at industry leaders, including J&J MedTech (DePuy Synthes), EOS Imaging (now part of the ATEC Spine Group), and NuVasive (now part of Globus Medical). Importantly, he began his career as a healthcare provider at Warrington and Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, bringing a genuine, patient-centered understanding to Aclarion's commercial strategy.

An estimated 266 million people across the globe live with chronic low back pain, making it one of the most widespread health challenges. Aclarion's Nociscan solution is the first evidence-supported SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. Nociscan objectively quantifies chemical biomarkers demonstrated to be associated with disc pain and has the potential to drive better surgical outcomes.
