SpectraScience Announces Presentation of WavSTAT4 Clinical Results for the Diagnosis of Small Colorectal Cancer Polyps at UEGW
SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/01/16 -- SpectraScience, Inc. (OTCQB: SCIE), a medical device company utilizing light technologies to detect and diagnose cancers, announced today that Dr. Noor Mohammed of Leeds University, Leeds England, presented clinical findings of the WavSTAT4 Optical Biopsy System at United European Gastroenterology Week (UEGW) On October 19th. The WavSTAT4 Optical Biopsy SystemR was once again found to exceed the clinical guidelines adopted by EU and US medical societies for the diagnosis of small and diminutive colorectal polyps during screening colonoscopies.
"This study once again underscores the clinical accuracy of the WavSTAT4 for diagnosing small polyps when used in colorectal cancer screening. Optical characterization of these polyps in real time is highly desired in order to permit the adoption of medical strategies that would avoid the cost of traditional pathology and prevent unnecessary polypectomies. Unlike image-based technologies that are consistently shown not to work adequately unless in the hands of experts and require complex human interpretations of the data, our system works equally well with clinicians of virtually all experience levels," said Michael Oliver, President and Chief Executive Officer of SpectraScience, Inc. "The data from Leeds, once gathered and completely analyzed is a key element in our application for a favorable determination from the National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the UK. We expect to have our package together for NICE adjudication in Q1 2017."
