American Medical Technologies obtains new data on proprietary technology
for the early detection of cancer from blood smears
Manalapan, New Jersey | March 18, 2010 | American Medical Technology, Inc.
(AMT, M20 Frankfurt Exchange) today announced that it has received new
results on the efficacy of its proprietary methodology intended for the
early detection of cancer and the evaluation of patient
carcinogenic-resistance using image recognition technology to analyze blood
smears.
AMT's patent pending Blood Cell Morphometric Method TM (BCMM) is the result
of 25 years of research, including historical data for hundreds of
patients, that features several competitive advantages over currently
available diagnostic tests. Competitive advantages include the ability to
detect both the presence of cancerous disease and its location (e.g., lung
cancer, stomach cancer, ovarian cancer, etc.), and the ability to evaluate
a patient's anti-carcinogenic resistance, for use in selecting and
assessing treatment protocols. BCMM is minimally invasive, subjecting
patients only to the drawing of small samples of arterial and venous blood,
and can be utilized before the onset of symptoms or the outbreak of visible
lesions. AMT's BCMM methodology is designed to provide results within hours
of testing. Data from recent clinical applications of BCMM demonstrates a
high degree of accuracy in the early detection of cancer.
Management believes that the early use of its BCMM methodology may produce
valuable data for the fight against cancer and become a significant
participant in the $5.2 billion market worldwide for in vitro cancer
diagnostic tests. The application of BCMM may even impact across the
spectrum of available cancer treatments, a market which has been estimated
to represent $219.2 billion in annual costs.
