(COMTEX) B: BSD Medical to Present Major Technology Advances at World Hype
B: BSD Medical to Present Major Technology Advances at World Hyperthermia Confer

SALT LAKE CITY, Apr 20, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- BSD Medical
Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: BSDM) today announced that a team of its
technological leaders have been selected to provide four presentations to world
oncologists in hyperthermia therapy outlining BSD's recent breakthroughs in
hyperthermia cancer therapy systems and treatment methods. The presentations
will be given at the International Congress of Hyperthermic Oncology (ICHO) held
in St. Louis, April 20-24. Paul Turner, who serves as the BSD's Chief Technology
Officer as well as Chairman, will be the lead presenter, supported by the work
of Dr. Mark Hagmann and Thomas Youd from BSD's technical development group.

BSD's presentations will introduce a new generation of microwave hyperthermia
systems that take the technical aspects of the therapy into a new era. The new
systems are vastly different, not only because they provide new and better
therapy, but also because of their ease of operation and their added provisions
for patient comfort.

Among the new features to be introduced by BSD Medical are touch-screen operator
interface, virtually bypassing the need to use keyboard entered control of
hyperthermia treatments. A new Sigma-60 Ellipse phased array applicator will be
presented for use with the BSD-2000, providing improved delivery of hyperthermia
therapy and additional provisions for patient comfort during treatment. The
presentations will reveal new advances in the integration of the BSD-2000 3-D
Sigma Eye applicator with MRI interface, a high technology that BSD Medical
pioneered in collaboration with Siemens Medical. These systems allow operators
to non-invasively see temperature changes deep in the body through magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI). Enhanced 3-D microwave interstitial pre-treatment
planning will be presented, along with new electronic phase control
capabilities, providing better conceived and better implemented interstitial
hyperthermia treatments. A new 8-channel spiral array applicator will also be
introduced that provides better adaptive control for superficial hyperthermia
therapy.

ICHO is a world hyperthermia conference that brings together three regional
conferences. Except on years involving world conferences, the three
participating members, the North American Hyperthermia Society (NAHS), the
European Society of Hyperthermic Oncology (ESHO) and the Asian Society of
Hyperthermic Oncology (ASHO) hold separate annual conferences on a regional
basis.

BSD Medical Corp. is the leading developer of microwave systems used for
hyperthermia cancer therapy. For additional information about BSD Medical and
