John Scarano will now head up the Impax North American sales force. Those reporting to Scarano include John DeSantis, who previously directed Agfas military radiology sales and will now be responsible for Impax sales to the government; Andrea Harding, who had been responsible for western region PACS sales at Sterling and will now manage commercial Impax sales in the central and western regions; and Anthony Passarello, who was Agfas director of southeastern regional sales and will now lead Impax sales for the commercial market in the northeast and southern regions.
In the new Imaging Systems group, Bruce Gower will handle sales in the corporate healthcare sector. He was previously with Sterling as zone general manager.
