MISSISSAUGA, ON--(Marketwired - April 20, 2017) - MedX Health Corp. ("MedX") (TSX VENTURE: MDX) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Health Consultant BV ("HCBV"), a Netherlands based company, to deploy MedX's SIAscopy skin imaging technology in health and wellness clinics and mobile testing units operated by HCBV in the Netherlands.

According to Dutch cancer charity KWF Kankerbestrijding, in 2016 nearly 16,000 people in the Netherlands were diagnosed with some form of skin cancer, making it the most common form of cancer in the country.

HCBV will be implementing a networked solution between outlets where patients will be scanned by trained technologists and dermatologists who will read the scans. HCBV is expected to roll out MedX's technology across their network of over 40 wellness centres and mobile clinics, allowing for significantly improved access for the public to be scanned and assessed for skin related cancers.

"We are seeing a growing number of opportunities for MedX's leading SIAscopy skin imaging technology to be used in multi-unit clinic environments globally. This leverages the ability to transmit scan data from multiple locations to be assessed by a few dermatologists," noted Rob von der Porten, MedX's CEO. "This provides more points of service and added convenience for patients as well as utilizing the physician's time more efficiently, thereby reducing assessment time and increasing the likelihood of better patient treatment outcomes. The Netherlands is another example of a growing number of countries using our technology, which is also being utilized in Canada."
