Acuson of Mountain View, CA, last week reported a healthy 7.6% increase in sales for its first quarter (end-April), but the company's profit dipped slightly.

For the quarter, Acuson posted revenues of $115.8 million, compared with $107.6 million in the first quarter of 1997. The company's net income was $5.7 million, compared with $5.8 million in the same period the year before.
