NHD signs distribution deal with Kodak

National Healthcare Distributors (NHD) has signed two contracts with Eastman Kodak’s Health Imaging division of Rochester, NY. The contracts allow NHD’s authorized Kodak distribution outlets to sell DryView laser imaging systems, and names Kodak as NHD’s primary source for x-ray processing chemicals. The processing chemical product will carry both Kodak’s and NHD’s logos.
