	    PITTSBURGH, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Neuro Kinetics, Inc.
(http://www.neuro-kinetics.com) , manufacturers of noninvasive medical evaluation
equipment used worldwide to test for vestibular and neurological
dysfunctions, today issued the following statement from CEO J. Howison
Schroeder related to an article published Friday, November 6, 2009, by the
Pittsburgh Tribune Review:

    "We are concerned about wrong impressions readers of the Tribune's
article might draw, particularly current and prospective users of our
equipment in hospitals, universities, clinical offices, military medical
facilities, government agencies and elsewhere who might call up the story
online or see it linked from an online research service.

    "The Tribune article stated that there are lingering regulatory issues
and that we had been 'forced to recall' 72 devices. In fact, there are no
lingering regulatory issues and no Neuro Kinetics physical equipment has
ever been recalled for any reason whatsoever, anywhere in the world. We did
recently undertake a voluntary initiative, with guidance and approval from
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to distribute an updated
version of our software (known as VEST(TM)) that we provide our users to
operate our testing equipment and to generate analysis of patient
evaluations. As our customers know, this updated version of VEST removed
only a small portion of the software -- normative data pertaining to
certain tests that can be conducted on some of our equipment.

    "The so-called 'recall' was of a small slice of software-stored data,
not the overall software program and certainly not any of our physical
equipment. We feel it is important that our current and prospective users
understand that distinction.

    "All medical equipment manufacturers have a responsibility to meet the
highest standards of safe, efficient and effective patient care. At Neuro
Kinetics, we take that responsibility very seriously. We believe we owe our
equipment users and their patients - not to mention our investors,
employees and other stakeholders - an appropriate reaction to the Tribune
article. We are issuing this statement today so that it is fed into the
cyber universe of archived information and hopefully can be seen by readers
of the Tribune article, next week or next year, in Pittsburgh or twelve
time zones away.

    "The Tribune article also noted our collaboration with the U.S.
military to improve detection of mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBI)
suffered by soldiers returning from Afghanistan and Iraq. We appreciate the
Tribune's coverage of our work in this field."
