“We experienced growth in the sale of our hyperthermia systems during this past quarter, reducing our net loss and our operating cash burn,” said Harold Wolcott, President of the Company.  “We have a strong balance sheet, no debt, and believe we are sufficiently capitalized to support the global distribution network for our MicroThermX® line of products.  We are pleased with the success of the rollout of the MicroThermX®, and are hopeful this is the beginning of a growing sales trend with the MicroThermX® program.”

Other highlights of the quarter and more recent activities include the following:

·  
Success in the Company’s product launch strategy for the MicroThermX® focused on the placement of a select number of systems with pivotal, high-profile, interventional oncology key opinion leaders.

·  
Early clinical success and strong positive clinician response to our MicroThermX®, driving purchase inquiries from an expanded base of hospitals.

·  
Completing nationwide sales coverage for the MicroThermX® line of products through signing geographically exclusive agreements with four leading specialty distributors and hiring additional regional sales management.

·  
Over 50 fully trained independent distributor representatives who are presenting the advantages of the MicroThermX® to physicians interested in using a microwave technology platform for tumor ablations.

·  
Increased sales activity resulting in a full schedule of clinical evaluations, an increase in pending sales going through the hospital purchasing process, and an increase in the number of sites who may decide to purchase equipment following clinical evaluations.

·  
Increased sales of hyperthermia cancer treatment systems, including the sale of a BSD-2000 3D/MR hyperthermia system to our European distributor.

·  
Appointment to our Board of Directors of Damian E. Dupuy, MD, a professor of Diagnostic Imaging at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Director of Tumor Ablation at Rhode Island Hospital, and a pioneer in the growing field of image guided tumor ablation.
