      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Diego, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/10/2006 --  SpectraScience, Inc. (SCIE.OB) announced today that it has filed for a new patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.<br />
<br />
The application is titled "System and Method for Non-Endoscopic Optical Biopsy Detection of Diseased Tissue".  The device is a disposable catheter designed to be used in body cavities to detect normal or cancerous tissue.  It is used in conjunction with the Company&apos;s WavSTATTM Optical Biopsy System.<br />
<br />
Jim Hitchin the Company&apos;s CEO said, "our multi-patented and proprietary WavSTATTM Optical Biopsy System is used by physicians to diagnose tissue and determine if it is normal, pre-cancerous, or cancerous within one second.  The WavStatTM System is currently approved by the FDA for use in detecting cancer in the colon.  A new application for detecting pre-cancers in the throat, sometimes called Barrett&apos;s esophagus, is being tested in a clinical trial.  Cancer of the esophagus is more than 90% fatal and may develop as a result of chronic heartburn or GERD.  Esophageal cancer is growing five times faster than all other cancers."<br />
