Disclaimer
The long-term goal of XeUS Technologies is to develop and provide a clinically approved xenon-129 hyperpolarizer for pulmonary imaging and beyond. Our currently-offered Xenon-129 hyperpolarizer is only for research-use only: i.e. no clearance has been received from the corresponding government regulatory agencies although we do not restrict our customers from seeking regulatory approvals for use in humans (e.g. US IND) on their own or with our help.
