The Twin Sample™ biopsy needle harvests two tissue samples in one pass, one for conventional pathology and the second for molecular diagnosis. If the pathologist finds tumor tissue in the first biopsy, the second sample can be dissected to provide matching tissue for testing in the molecular assay. The needle design is complete and prototypes are being manufactured. Prototypes can be reserved for clinical trials now. We anticipate licensing the worldwide patent rights to a leading needle distributor.
