Prepare to have your mind blown with this DD..
Post# of 1023
The first part is simple DD, but it led elsewhere to a surprise..
1.
To reinforce the fact that real medical professionals are involved with Spectra Science:
Dr Venkat Subramanian
Clinical Associate Professor and Honorary Consultant Gastroenterologist
Quote:
d. I am the principal investigator in the UK for the international multicenter MORDIS trial (NCT01980134) which will evaluate the value of the WavStat 4 optical biopsy system for the characterization of colorectal polyps funded by Spectra Science (USA) and Colorectal HTC .

The following part I actualy stumbled on by clicking random links after I read about Dr Venkat Subramanian, but man are you going to like this..
Check out the last sentence above talking about Colorectal HTC helping to fund the WavStat4 study . That's pretty big news; SCIE has companies aiding them in their studies! That's how much interest the market has in SCIE.

What is a Healthcare Technology Co-operative?
The National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) has funded eight Healthcare Technology Co-operatives (HTCs) across England. Each HTC acts as a centre of expertise, which will focus on a clinical area of unmet need for NHS patients.
Working collaboratively with industry, each HTC is focused on developing new medical devices, healthcare technologies or technology-dependent interventions, which improve treatment and quality of life for patients.

So, here we go. Look what I found:
This is from the HTC website in the UK..
Quote:
Our role SpectraScience was keen to find a UK centre to take part in a Europe-wide multi-centre trial to test the accuracy of the WavSTAT technology. The company approached the NIHR Office for Clinical Infrastructure, who put them in touch with the Colorectal HTC.
With our help, SpectraScience met with Dr Venkat Subramanian, Associate Professor and Consultant Gastroenterologist at St James University Hospital, who has a particular expertise and research interests in imaging technologies in endoscopy. As a result, Leeds became the trial’s only UK centre and has, to date, recruited over 60 patients and submitted close to 140 polyps as part of an overall Europe-wide target of 1200. Each polyp is diagnosed during endoscopy using WavSTAT, then sent to two separate pathologists for laboratory analysis – all three diagnoses being reached independently. If the two pathologists reach the same diagnosis, the polyp is submitted into the trial.
Next steps
The trial, now nearing completion , will provide data on the accuracy of diagnosis using WavSTAT, as compared to laboratory analysis. The American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy guidelines require a negative predictive value of 90 per cent for the test to be clinically appropriate. A high negative predictive value means that if the test predicts that the polyp is benign then it is highly likely to diagnosed as benign by the histopathologist as well. This would reduce the risk of missing out any pre-cancerous polyps.

..notice it says " The trial, now nearing completion " which as of today, theres a high chance it is completed.
