MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C.–(Business Wire)–Revolutions Medical Corporation (OTCBB: RMCP – News) recently signed a worldwideexclusive license with Strategic Product Development (SPD) for an image guidednavigation system that incorporates high accuracy breast biopsies system (BBS)to conventional mammography systems which number more than 50,000 globally.

Thistechnology has already received 510K clearance by the FDA. BBS facilitatesaccurate and fast non-palpable lesions and micro calcification localization inthe treatment of breast cancer. It is low-cost, standalone stereotacticimage-based system which uses data from a pair of mammograms to enableradiologists to accurately position a localization needle or biopsy tool at thelocation of suspicious abnormalities in the patient`s breast. RevolutionsMedical believes that the BBS will offer significant advantages for thelocalization and biopsy of breast abnormalities.

The system can also be modifiedto leverage existing popular biopsy tools. The technology can be used to providea technology platform for future development including multi-modal breastimaging for the image fusion of MRI and X-Ray images. This represents anotherstep in RevMed`s mission statement “To make health care safer and less expensiveby developing and marketing new products and tools to the medical industry.” TheBBS will be modified to use Rev Med`s proprietary safety syringe technology aswell. Approximately 4 million diagnostic procedures are performed annually worldwideto evaluate abnormalities detected during mammography screening. RevMed believesthat this technology has the potential to be deployed in the vast majority ofmore than 50,000 mammography machines that are currently in use worldwide,including more than 15,000 in the U.S This market also represents $400M peryear in disposables.
