Date:10/30/2007

- Data from five studies presented at United European Gastroenterology Week

(UEGW) - - Non-invasive imaging system diagnoses histology and pathology of the

gastrointestinal tract safely and effectively -

PARIS, Oct. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Mauna Kea Technologies (MKT), the leader in the field of in vivo cellular imaging, announced that leading European gastroenterologists presented five abstracts related to the company's Cellvizio(R) GI at the 15th United European Gastroenterology Week (UEGW). The reported data demonstrate the clinical utility of Cellvizio(R) GI during double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) as well as in the diagnosis of a range of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. The findings also provide insight into criteria for optimizing Cellvizio(R) GI performance. The UEGW meeting is taking place in Paris October 27th - 31st .

Cellvizio(R) GI is the first and only confocal endomicroscopy instrument that is compatible with all endoscopes and allows real-time, dynamic microscopic imaging of the entire GI tract at 12 frames per second. To date, more than 600 patients have undergone an endoscopic procedure with the Cellvizio(R) GI imaging system.

Cellvizio and Double-Balloon Enteroscopy

In an oral presentation (Abstract FP-337), Pr. Stephan Miehlke, University Hospital, Dresden, Germany, described the first use of the Cellvizio(R) GI system with DBE to evaluate the entire small bowel in 27 procedures in 16 patients. Cellvizio(R) obtained informative images in all procedures but one, yielding a technical success rate of 96%. There were no adverse events related to DBE or the use of Cellvizio(R). The Cellvizio(R) system was able to detect both normal and abnormal villi throughout the GI tract. All Cellvizio(R) GI results were confirmed by subsequent histology of biopsy samples.
