Toshiba America Medical Systems has named Scott Eaton director of MRI business unit development. Eaton replaces Steve Sickels, who was appointed senior director of TAMS ultrasound unit in April (SCAN 4/28/99). Eaton joined TAMS six years ago as senior product manager in the companys CT business unit, and participated in the companys launch of Xpress and Xvision helical CT scanners. In 1997, he joined the MRI business unit and helped the company introduce its OPART open MRI system.
Eatons appointment is the latest in a spate of management shifts at TAMS. Earlier this month, Toshiba named Robert Kreps as vice president, full-line sales, and Steven Oblen as director of ultrasound sales operations and business development (SCAN 10/13/99).
