POSC NEWS..Positron Corporation (POSC), a
leading molecular imaging company specializing in the field of nuclear
cardiology, today announced it had achieved the highest mark of compliance in a
recent inspection by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec 06, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
The NRC performed a safety inspection of Positron's Indianapolis facility this
past Thursday and issued a compliance report (FORM 591M Part 1) with its
findings. The report indicated Positron achieved the highest possible compliance
notice (with no violations) available from this Federal regulatory body, which
monitors radioactive material (RAM) license holders.

"The NRC has a strong reputation for rigorousness and insistence on its standards
of procedural verification, training and documentation. A RAM license is key to
our radiopharmaceutical programs in order to conduct critical research &
development and manufacturing, now and in the future. More immediately, we will
be conducting validation testing prior to shipment of commercial products from
our Nuclear Cardio-Assist(TM) line."

"Our internal processes and controls are always driven to ensure we adhere to the
highest degree of compliance, this is further evidence of Positron's overall
commitment to excellence," stated Positron CEO Patrick G. Rooney.

The NRC periodically inspects the procedures and documentation of RAM license
holders, such as imaging centers, nuclear pharmacies and producers of radioactive
products, to ensure safe and proper handling of radioactive material. Inspections
are an examination of the activities conducted under a license issued by the NRC,
an independent Federal agency. A RAM license is required to produce and handle
radioactive pharmaceuticals. Positron received its RAM license from the NRC in
December 2009 to support its imaging device and pharmaceutical programs.
