Marconi Medical Systems has signed an agreement with Shimadzu covering sales of Marconi's multislice CT scanners in Japan. The deal will give Cleveland-based Marconi increased access to the large Japanese market, while Shimadzu of Kyoto, Japan, will be able to add high-end multislice scanners to its CT portfolio.
The exclusive deal covers Marconi's Mx8000 scanner, as well as the company's Acqsim CT simulation system. Marconi and Shimadzu already have product distribution deals covering nuclear medicine, MRI, and single-slice CT systems.
