arcinoma or by the endoscopist for tumours in the lower bile duct and head of pancreas. It is a sterile, single-use device compatible with the most commonly used RF generators. The fifth in EMcision's line of medical devices, the EndoHPB is CE marked and has earned considerable positive feedback from its use in clinical settings throughout Europe.

The Company's first product, the Habib™ 4X™, captured close to 30% share of the US hepatic resection market following its introduction under exclusive license to AngioDynamics (NASDAQ: ANGIO). "We expect similar success with the EndoHPB," stated Prof. Habib.
