SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 28, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BSD Medical Corporation (NasdaqGM:BSDM - News) today announced that the company has agreed to collaborate with GE Medical Systems in the integration of BSD Medical's premier cancer treatment system with a GE magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. The new system to be installed at Duke University will provide MRI monitoring of cancer treatments in progress as delivered by a BSD Medical system. This will be the first collaborative engineering effort between GE and BSD Medical. BSD Medical has also worked with Siemens Medical Systems in prior integrations for MRI monitoring of cancer treatments with BSD Medical's systems.

The BSD-2000/3D/MR is a hybrid integration of a BSD-2000/3D cancer treatment system with a magnetic resonance imaging system (MRI) used to visually monitor deep thermal therapy cancer treatments in progress with thermal imaging through MR-tomography. The images are in color, and temperature within the images is differentiated visually by use of color coding. MR-tomography is therefore a classic application for monitoring cancer treatments with BSD Medical's systems, as these treatments involve delivery of precision-focused heat through RF/microwave energy.
