George-

Here is a quote from AccuMed in one of their filings;

"If any company currently marketing rescreening products
receives FDA clearance or approval for use of its product as a primary screening system to replace or work in conjunction with conventional Pap smear screening or if automated analysis systems are developed and receive FDA clearance or approval, the use of conventional Pap smear screening could be substantially affected and the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected."
End

An August 28, '97 press release by NeoPath (NPTH) a competitor of ACMI in the PAP Smear Detection Device arena states that they (NPTH) are seeking FDA Approval for Primary Screening of their
AutoPap screening system.

Question???

In light of this FDA application by NeoPath (for Primary Screening Status of their AutoPap system), what impact will this have on AccuMed's AcCell system if Primary Screening status is granted to NeoPath?

I would be really interested to hear what the response is, wouldn't you?
