PR Newswire (US)
SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BSD Medical Corp.
(AMEX: BSM) today announced that the company is near to concluding
agreements with sales entities in preparation for entry into the
Japanese market with BSD's cancer treatment systems. Japan is the
world's second largest medical market, behind the United States.
Entry into the Japanese market is part of BSD's global strategy for
establishing a world market for BSD Medical's cancer treatment
systems. Japan, along with China, has been a high-priority
marketing target in the Pacific Rim. BSD has already established a
distributor in China, and obtained regulatory approval for the sale
of the BSD-2000 in China earlier this year. Initial sales in China
have been to four highly visible hospitals that will serve as
important reference sites in that market. BSD's objective is to
pursue a similar marketing path in Japan. Japan and China together
represent a major percentage of the total Pacific Rim market. BSD
Medical produces systems that deliver precision focused
RF/microwave energy to treat cancer, killing cancer directly and
boosting the effectiveness of companion radiation and/or
chemotherapy treatments. BSD was the recipient of the 2005 Frost
and Sullivan "Technology of the Year Award" for cancer therapy
devices. For further information about BSD Medical and its cancer
treatment systems visit the BSD website at

release that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements, as that item is defined in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All forward-looking statements,
including all projections or expectations of future events,
including expectations for future sales of the BSD-2000 based on
past successes, are subject to risks and uncertainties detailed in
the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
