Flurpiridaz approval made PET the new gold standard for cardiac stress testing. Cardiovascular Business News highlights why approval of Flurpiridaz is the tipping point that will have every cardiologist with a SPECT machine in their office looking to replace it with a PET camera. As a past President of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology stated "For hospitals that have been on the fence about investing in PET imaging systems, the expected FDA clearance of flurpiridaz may be the missing piece of the puzzle that pushes many to make the investment.":

Flurpiridaz was just approved in September 2024 and isn't even available on the market yet, but Positron has already sold more systems this year than in the past deacade!
Positron sells the most economical choices in the market for PET and PET/CT systems, as highlighted in this recent piece at Cardiovascular Business News:

We are just at the beginning of a long capital improvement cycle for cardiology practices. While there are much larger competitors in the market, Positron was a pioneer in cardiac PET, helped develop the industry standard software, and has the respect of its past customers for referrals and case studies.

yes, I submitted a couple of questions on their website and got a response. I don't want to reprint their response here because I hate that kind of thing on message boards, since unscrupulous people post "responses" that are edited or even fabricated, so you can never trust them.
FYI, the response was upbeat and positive, but isn't it always when it comes from the company? :)
I responded with "thank you!" and they responded quickly with "More to follow. We will add you to our investor email list."
I suggest you submit a question on their website and see if they answer you too. FYI the responses were July 2nd and I have not seen a newsletter yet.
I will give you this nugget from the company's response since I think this must be already disclosed and I didn't find it:Positron acquired the North American rights and 510k ownership of the NeuSight PET-CT system. This NeuSight PET-CT 510k is the foundation of future systems, ie Affinity/NeuWise PET-CT. Positron now as owners will be submitting an amended 510k under Positron, which will include the electrical test(s), for FDA Clearance, thus making the need for an IDE moot.

New Website, yes it looks great and updated to what is going on with the company.
What is really interesting is the content within, it basically is the roadmap of where the company will be concentrating it's efforts by entering the highly lucrative PET/CT marketplace. The company with there partner Neusoft Medical will be manufacturing and selling state of the art, 4D medical scanners at prices significantly less than the competition, The current market capitalization of this company is silly at $25mio. If the company sells 5 machines at an average of $2mio plus service revenues of $250k annually, it's in my opinion it should be at least 4x, yet I'm in the camp that Positron will sell at a minimum 20+ annually, therefore the stock is now trading at a very serious discount. I have been accumulating weekly it's a slow arduous task but I'm getting a position and that's all that matters. Hopefully, before all the news starts flying I can get fully positioned. The risk/reward is perfect at these levels. Positron has survived 40+ years with PET only. Now it's similar to a Phoenix from the flames with PET/CT. Looking forward to the future and a higher multiple of stock price.

Sometimes, I feel like I'm messaging myself but ,maybe there are interested parties who like me believe this stock will be making me serious money in the short term and for sure in the long term. There has been some serious accumulation of size down around the $0.70 price. I'm expecting something really big to be on the horizon. No way this stock should be at this level. Positron had a game changer of a news release in which they will be selling a state of the art 4D PET/CT for a price that is 50% less expensive than all the competitors. Positron will be the WalMart of medical scanners. You have reimbursement at record levels, aged machines, aging population and a massive SPECT issue, plus Coronary flow the absolute wild card.
All this and the company trades at a $25mio mkt capitalization. This should be in my honest opinion at least a $250mio mkt. cap. which gives me a $7.00 per share. I would expect an announcement from mgmt. that they have initiated a stock buyback. That might wake up the world to what Positron is on the verge. Change does not happen over night in the case of Positron it too a mere 40 years to be in a position of greatness.

All quiet on the boards and in the security. Fortunately, for all of us trying to buy some stock before the FDA approval there seems to be a seller around $1.20. It must be someone who does not read the news that is dwindling out of the company. The transaction with Neusoft Medical is a game changer, multi-billion company dealing with currently a small company like Positron should make investors step back and wonder Why?. As the proverb states where there is smoke there must be Fire. Positron seems to have total control of the partnership, as they will hold the FDA approval and exclusive rights to the North American market. We shall see how many Doctors will switch from SPECT to PET/CT, as SPECT will be extremely difficult with the lack of radioisotopes, so the best solution will be the State of the Art 4D Positron system in terms of pricing points and imaging.
If anyone is out there looking for some exchange of ideas, please let's begin......

Apples, That is an impressive hold.
I definitely agree with you on the future price action. The announcement is what got my interest, the I did some research into this 30 year old company with it's High's and Low's.
This announcement for me, is the creation of an entirely new company. The ability to compete with a PET/CT against the large players with a new state of the state of the Art tech. offering 4D scans is value alone. If the company executes it's sales, it will have a serious multiply and will trade much higher than today's price. The only issue is limited float, which makes it tough to own, but on the other side of the dilemma is as the price action goes higher, the company can apply to a bigger exchange and do an offering with a major firm. I paid $1.25 yesterday for 2500 shares to see if the offer was good and it stayed, so there is a seller. Let's hope they try and push it down a bit so I can get a cheaper cost average. The $8.00.
Did you ever think of dollar cost averaging? It seems the logical thing to do given your holding price.
Best of Luck.

Medtrade77, Many thanks for that focus. I think the bigger news and one of the primary reasons I'm a new investor is the following news release about the shortages of isotopes. The shortage will literally make SPECT cameras as worthless as my Peloton bicycle that now serves as a hanger for my dirty laundry. As doctors will need to find a solution quickly to the SPECT issue for scans, Positron is well positioned to gain some traction of the 20,000 SPECT cameras in the USA alone.
Water leak at Dutch reactor imperils supplies of medical isotopes
By Will Morton, AuntMinnie.com staff writer
January 26, 2022 -- A shutdown at a nuclear reactor in Petten, the Netherlands, will impact global supplies of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) and lutetium-177 (Lu-177) for medical use in coming weeks, warned Europe's nuclear medicine agency.
Radioisotope manufacturer Nuclear Research and Consultancy Group (NRG) informed Nuclear Medicine Europe (NMEu) that it shut down its High Flux Reactor (HFR) in Petten on January 20 after detecting a water leak in the reactor beam tube cooling system. There was no risk to workers or the general public, and the reactor remains in stand-by status pending an investigation, said NMEu's Emergency Response Team.
Mo-99 and Lu-177 targets that had been scheduled to be irradiated are now delayed, and the supply of the isotopes will be impacted. Both isotopes are used for medical applications, with Mo-99 being the precursor to technetium-99m, one of the most widely used radioisotopes for nuclear cardiology. Lu-177 is often used for therapeutic applications.
"Medical institutions should contact their radioisotope suppliers to determine the specific impact on their orders," NMEu stated in the notice.
In a call with HFR officials on January 24, NMEu said it was informed that endoscopic inspections of difficult to access piping have been performed, but the root cause of the leak has not been identified. Additional inspections are foreseen this week.
The NRG project team in place will determine what kind of actions will be required to address the leak and enable the reactor to return to service after regulatory review and approval, NMEu stated.[/color]

Flurpiridaz F 18 is a fluorine 18-based PET MPI agent designed to assess blood flow to the heart. On April 25, 2017, we announced entering into a definitive, exclusive Collaboration and License Agreement with GE Healthcare for the agent’s continued Phase 3 development and worldwide commercialization. The second Phase 3 trial is now underway; however, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, enrollment in the global clinical development program had been delayed and has now resumed at a slower recruiting pace. GE Healthcare now expects to complete enrollment in the second half of 2021 and, assuming regulatory approval, begin commercialization in early 2023

Medtrade77, As you are my go to guy on this opportunity. I have another question for you. I'm currently $0.75 for 10k, $0.65 for 20k and $0.50 for 50k. I just know if I pay up, they will run for the hills. My question therefore is : What are the chances that this stock has a push down that I will be filled. I'm most likely being penny foolish. The way I see it , this company has serious upside. I believe the total scanner market is approx. $3.3B. You have the big three, that are always going to have a majority of the sales, but if the new kid of the block Positron could get 10% of the market that would give it $300mil, Plus another $30mil in service revs.. We can be extremely prudent in our assumption of 1x trailing revs. That would equal $15.00 a share, based on the share count we previously discussed. So that's a 10x from current levels. So, of course I should just pay up, therefore second question. Do you know where size can be purchased? I called the company to ask but have not heard anything back yet. I'm using a Swiss bank for my purchase so hopefully they represent properly. Many Thanks in advance.

Medtrade , Many thanks for the response. That's a serious price target.
I noticed they have a decent amount of cash on the balance sheet. My guess is that they will need to hire additional sales people once the FDA clearance happens. IMO, the security trades like the company is private, so whether the company is on a $35mio market capitalization or lower really does not tell the true value. The company has been around for decades and has withstood the the changes in reimbursement and shortages of radioisotopes from a decade ago. It's interesting that the company is now entering the PET/CT market, to target Oncology which in my opinion is the game changer. Massive market, with reimbursement coverage. If the company gets the correct IR/PR we should see a higher value, perhaps your $15.00 price target. So, with the share count being correct that would make it a $400mil company. This year should be the make or break, clear the FDA hurdle, get a few sales of the new product, service revs for recurring income and some market participants the price action should follow.

Dear All, I'm doing some research so if anyone is active and is looking to assist it would be greatly appreciated. I recently purchased Positron after the news of the deal with Neusoft as I firmly believe it's a game changer for any company but especially Positron. Selling a state of the art machine and from my understanding at a discount to the competition of GE, Siemens and Phillips. My question is more about the amount of shares outstanding I'm reading conflicting reports, 14mil, 10mil and the recent filing stating 25mil. Is there a reason there is so little volume ? Even if there is 25mil outstanding the company is worth $35mil. You would believe that the security would trade.
Doesn't make sense, even in this market. My concern is that the company is getting the word out to investors. The other issue is every time I take an offer they only fill me 100 shares.
Hopefully, someone here is paying attention and we can exchange information.
Good Luck
