I too had the same problem with the last version. I had to completely reformat my drive as Drive Genius not Tech Tool Pro could repair my drive.
Luckily I had a backup that was only a few weeks old, so I did not loose too much. I was able to boot from that and my original drive did mount to let me pull some documents off of it.
