Women's Integrative Health Encinitas OB/GYN Selects LUMA Cervical Imaging System
Date:3/9/2009

First Southern California Practice to Join SpectraScience Network of Providers for the LUMA(R) Cervical Imaging System

SAN DIEGO, March 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SpectraScience, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SCIE), a San Diego-based medical device company, today announced that it has placed its LUMA Cervical Imaging System to detect pre-cancers at Women's Integrative Health, located in Encinitas, California.

Dr. Angelica Zaid, founder of Women's Integrative Health, stated, "We are pleased to be the first practice in Southern California to join the network of providers that now offer the LUMA Cervical Imaging System. In addition to enhancing our ability to detect and treat patients earlier who had abnormal Pap tests, the LUMA System fits into our practice goals of providing safe and non-invasive procedures for our patients."

SpectraScience CEO, Jim Hitchin, commented, "Women's Integrative Health is an important partner in our LUMA provider network. They focus on natural, safe approaches to Obstetrics, Gynecology & Fertility and place patient care as their highest priority. This placement represents our continued dedication in developing and bringing more effective cancer screening technologies to the market with the result of better and earlier diagnosis, thus saving lives."

The LUMA Cervical Imaging System was developed to significantly improve the detection of high-grade pre-cancerous cervical abnormalities that have the potential to become invasive cancer. Almost a thousand women die every day worldwide from cervical cancer. Based on data from the National ALTS study, it is estimated that pre-cancerous disease goes undiagnosed in about 200,000 women each year. The LUMA System provides a safe and effective method, that when used as an adjunct to colposcopy, has been demonstrated to uncover at least 26% more high-grade pre-cancerous disease than colposcopy alone.
