undertaken a number of initiatives to increase its exposure and
interest within the United States. Given that our corporate focus
is on the U.S. diagnostic dental imaging market, the world's
largest by far, these undertakings just make sense."
"More than 25 million scans have been performed using our
VELscope® Vx Enhanced Oral Assessment System -- with the majority
of them done by U.S. dentists on American citizens," continued Dr.
Gane. "The technology has positively impacted thousands of
lives within the United States. As we expand our U.S. operations,
it is in imperative we enhance our public profile within the
world's largest dental technology and capital market."

is reviewing the possibility of filing Blue Sky applications in the
13 other states. This will facilitate the selling of the
