TORONTO, April 11 /CNW/ - Spectral Diagnostics Inc., (TSX: SDI), a Phase III company developing the first theranostic treatment for severe sepsis and septic shock, today announced that it has refiled, on SEDAR, its unaudited interim financial statements for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 to include specific disclosure that these interim financial statements have not been subject to a review by the Company's auditors. Other than this disclosure, there are no changes to these unaudited interim financial statements.

About Spectral Diagnostics
Spectral is a Phase III company seeking U.S. FDA approval for its lead theranostics product for the treatment for severe sepsis and septic shock. Toraymyxin is a therapeutic hemoperfusion device that removes endotoxin, which can cause sepsis, from the bloodstream. Directed by the Company's Endotoxin Activity Assay (EAA™), the only FDA cleared diagnostic for the risk of developing sepsis, Spectral's EUPHRATES trial is the world's first theranostics trial in the area of sepsis.

Toraymyxin has been approved for therapeutic use in 18 countries, and has been used safely and effectively in more than 80,000 patients to date. In March, 2009, Spectral obtained the exclusive development and commercial rights in the U.S. for Toraymyxin, and in November, 2010, signed an exclusive distribution agreement for this product in Canada. More than 250,000 patients are diagnosed with severe sepsis and septic shock in North America each year, representing a greater than $1 billion market opportunity for Spectral. Spectral is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol SDI.
