Perceptronix Medical Inc.: OralAdvance(TM) at Jasper Dental Congress and Journees Dentaires Internationales du Quebec

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 21, 2009) - PMI Labs will be exhibiting OralAdvance™, an informative new test for assessing the malignant potential of oral lesions, on May 21 - 24, 2009 at the Jasper Dental Congress (Jasper, Alberta) at booth 303 and on May 25 - 26, 2009 at the Journees Dentaires Internationals du Quebec (Montreal, Quebec) at booth 202.

With recent advances in visualization techniques for the oral cavity, dentists are encountering more suspicious lesions. OralAdvance™, with its soft cyto-brush sample collection kit, provides dentists with an informative new option for assessing these lesions when biopsy is not warranted or possible. It provides an objective measure of gross DNA abnormality that can give additional information about the pre-malignant or malignant nature of a lesion.
