Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center To Investigate The Unique Use Of Company's DIRI([R]) Technology In Assessing Pigmented Lesions of the Skin including Melanoma
BOHEMIA, N.Y. -- Advanced BioPhotonics Inc. (OTCBB: ABPH) a developer of next generation medical imaging applications using advanced infrared technology announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School. BIDMC will investigate the use of Advanced BioPhotonics' proprietary DIRI([R]) method of dynamic infrared imaging in detecting and assessing Pigmented Lesions of the Skin including Melanoma and other forms of Skin Cancer.
"Based on our preliminary work in this area and the recommendation of our Medical Advisory Committee, we are focusing our current efforts in this key clinical area," said Denis A. O'Connor, CEO of Advanced BioPhotonics. "We are hopeful that our non-invasive DIRI([R]) technology will play an important role in assisting the clinician in the early detection and assessment of skin cancer. We are honored to have a Harvard teaching site such as BIDMC participate in this important clinical trial."
To conduct this study, which is scheduled to begin shortly, BIDMC will utilize the Company's patented BioScanIR([R]) System, a dynamic infrared imaging modality. The BioScanIR([R]) provides a fast, non-invasive, radiation-free method for detecting diseases that affect perfusion, and reperfusion in human tissue.
The Company expects to conclude the first phase of this trial in September 2007.
