Interventional CT represents a strategic opportunity for Medrad. The company has signed its second distribution agreement in three months, this one with Lakewood, CO-based UltraGuide, for products addressing this market segment.
Medrad, a U.S. subsidiary of Schering, agreed in January to begin distributing UltraGuide's CT-Guide in the U.S. and France.
