SpectraScience, Inc.'s WavSTAT4 Results Presented At Digestive Disease Week (DDW)

SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - June 02, 2015) - SpectraScience, Inc. (OTCQB: SCIE), a medical device company utilizing light technologies to detect and diagnose cancers, announced today European researchers recently presented a paper at DDW, the world’s largest Gastroenterology meeting, held in Washington, D.C. in May. The results of the paper showed the accuracy of the WavSTAT4R Optical Biopsy System exceeded the guideline of 90% Negative Predictive Value (NPV) put forth by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE). With an overall NPV of 96% across the entire colon and 98% in the recto-sigmoid colon, the WavSTAT4 Optical Biopsy System was found "...to be accurate enough to leave distal colorectal polyps in place without resection or to resect and discard them without pathologic assessment.” The paper went on to conclude that the WavSTAT4 system has the potential to reduce costs and risks associated with the redundant removal of certain colorectal polyps.

“These results highlight the key elements of our value proposition- safer for the patient, faster for the doctor or nurse practitioner, and less expensive for the health care system- and provide the clinical validation of our technology,” stated Michael Oliver, President and Chief Executive Officer. “With this clinical validation of the economic savings inherent in the reduction of unnecessary pathology costs and patient complications, we now have the necessary proof to begin our sales and marketing activities throughout Europe.”
