ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- (Business Wire)

Three months ago Manhattan Scientifics (OTCQB: MHTX) announced the delivery of its 1^st breakthrough cancer measurement instrument to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

The Company's technology uses iron oxide nanoparticles and a technique it calls Magnetic Relaxometry to locate and measure cancers with a sensitivity that would provide a diagnosis years before other known methods. It is generally believed that very early detection of cancers may well lead to their early elimination prior to metastasis and growth.

Last January the company executed an agreement to collaborate with M.D. Anderson to advance, demonstrate and validate its breakthrough technology which was developed by Edward R. Flynn, PhD.

Dr. Flynn is the founder and chief scientist of the company’s subsidiary, Senior Scientific LLC whose research was funded by the NIH over an 8 year period. Thereafter Manhattan Scientific undertook the commercialization, management and financing to take the science from "bench to bedside". The Company has recently engaged special FDA consultants in order to accelerate regulatory approval.

Sara McKenzie, FDA specialist said, "PharmaDirections is a professional consulting firm that has ushered some 22 pharmaceutical and medical device companies, large and small, through the labyrinth of the FDA. We have been retained to guide your project through the regulatory process and are optimistic, with high expectations, to be successful within a reasonable timeframe. "

Management believes its technology will emerge as the next important evolutionary step in cancer diagnostics; the next step beyond X-ray, sonography, MRI, CT, and PET scanning.
