1 SENO MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS OPTO-ACOUSTIC SYSTEMS FOR MEDICAL IMAGING AND TOMOGRAPHY Alexander A. Oraevsky, Ph.D. Chief Scientific Officer, Seno Medical Instruments

2 OPTO-ACOUSTIC IMAGING TECHNOLOGY  Disruptive Technology for Unmet Needs  Multibillion Dollar Market  Platform for Multiple Follow-on Applications  Science Validated  Intellectual Property Protected Globally  Experienced Medical Device Management Team  Seeking Investment, Strategic Partners and Licensing Opportunities

3  OA is a Natural Fusion of Optical Imaging (that provides high contrast) and Acoustic Imaging (that provides high resolution). OA allows to see under the skin in the depth of tissue based on detection of ultrasound waves generated through absorption of light  Opto-Acoustic Imaging is Disruptive Technology:  New medical information - maps of blood distribution in tissues and its oxygen saturation  First new functional imaging technology in 30 years: no contrast agents or ionizing radiation WHAT IS OPTO-ACOUSTIC IMAGING ?

4 micro-vasculature Mouse organs VALIDATION OF SCIENCE PRE-CLINICAL IMAGING IN ANIMALS: BRIDGE TO CLINIC blood vessels >$10M in US Government funding; >$30M for academic research worldwide

5 Cancer Cardiovascular Intravascular Stroke Brain Trauma Other Blood Related Applications 5 Diagnostic Imaging Image - Guided Biopsy Monitoring of Drug Efficacy Monitoring of Treatment Molecular and Functional Imaging PLATFORM TECHNOLOGY UTILIZING LIGHT AND SOUND TO MAP AND CHARACTERIZE BLOOD IN TISSUES AND IN ANGIOGENESIS-RELATED MICROVASCULATURE ~$40 B ~$10 B ~$35 B ~$10 B

6  LOUIS combines optics and acoustics to significantly improve accuracy of cancer detection and noninvasive diagnosis ENTRY MARKET: BREAST CANCER

7 LOUIS™ IMAGING PROVIDES FUNCTIONAL INFORMATION ON BLOOD DISTRIBUTION IN ADDITION TO TISSUE STRUCTURE

8 OPTO-ACOUSTICS VERSUS CURRENT STANDARD OF BREAST IMAGING* Key Properties Gold Standard (X-ray mammo) LOUIS™ (US+OA) Significant Benefits Morphology and function Only morphology Yes Both High sensitivity and specificity Negative Predictive Value 70%/30% 50-70 y.o. / <40 y.o. 98% Lower Rate of Missed Cancer Positive Predictive Value 60%/20% 50-70 y.o. / <40 y.o. 82% Reduces False Positives Patient Safety Carcinogenic radiation Safe Light No harm to patients Patient Comfort Pain of compression No compression Patient acceptance *References: Geller BM.
