Guided Therapeutics, Inc. and Konica Minolta Opto, Inc. to Jointly Develop Cancer Detection Products
May 19th, 2009
The new products, for the detection of lung and esophageal cancer, are based on GT’s LightTouch™ non-invasive cervical cancer detection technology, which is undergoing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s premarket approval process. Lung cancer is the most prevalent cancer in the world and esophageal cancer ranks just below cervical cancer in newly diagnosed cases, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
