Dan Sullivan, president and chief executive officer, said, "Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for improving survival rates in lung cancer. The prior standard of care left patients with the option of either undergoing invasive procedures or watchful waiting for an increase in lesion (spot) size. We believe ENB will revolutionize the way physicians and patients think about the diagnosis of lung cancer. With the introduction of ENB, patients finally gained a minimally invasive alternative for this early diagnosis."

Mr. Sullivan continued, "The establishment of a Category I CPT?® code is a major milestone for superDimension. We believe the new CPT code will enable hospitals to more easily submit reimbursement for ENB procedures."

ENB has received FDA 510(k) clearance in the United States, CE Mark in Europe and it has also been approved for use in Australia and Canada. ENB has been performed on more than 9,000 patients in over 200 hospitals worldwide.

Separately, superDimension also debuted today the iLogic(TM) system, its next generation ENB technology, at the American College of Chest Physicians (CHEST) meeting in San Diego (booth number 819) and the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Conference in Chicago (booth number 3216).
