About BioLucent, Inc.
BioLucent, located in Aliso Viejo, California, develops, markets and sells a breast cushion, MammoPad®, to decrease the discomfort associated with mammography. BioLucent's primary research and development efforts are directed at its brachytherapy business which is focused on breast cancer therapy. Prior to the acquisition, BioLucent will spin-off its brachytherapy technology and business to the holders of BioLucent's outstanding shares of capital stock. The new company, Cianna Medical will manufacture and market the SAVI™ brachytherapy applicator. As a result Hologic will only acquire BioLucent's Mammopad® business and related assets.
