Analogic Corp : University Medical Center, Lubbock, Texas, Selects ANEXA for Digital Radiography

Dennis Runyan, Vice President of Sales and Service for ANEXA Corporation, announced today that the University Medical Center (UMC) Health System Hospital, based in Lubbock, Texas, has selected ANEXA Corporation as its supplier of advanced Digital Radiography (DR) systems. UMC is the leader in comprehensive healthcare delivery in West Texas and Eastern New Mexico, and conducts more than 200,000 radiological procedures annually.

A selection and review team at UMC systematically evaluated DR systems from all the major manufacturers. The team selected ANEXA's SyneRad(TM) family of DR products for its Level One trauma center and for general radiography and dedicated orthopedic applications. The SyneRad OMNI DR systems meet a wide range of clinical requirements while providing superior images at approximately half the radiation dose per patient.

According to Dr. Frank Quattromani, UMC's Chief of Radiology, "ANEXA's Selenium2 technology provides images that are consistently the best we've observed." Thomas Schue, UMC's Director of Radiology, noted other major considerations, including the OMNI's unique patient positioning system that saves critical time while providing for a new level of patient comfort and clinical accuracy in the relatively limited space and rapid pace of the trauma center. ANEXA's unique SyneVue acquisition software was also a major factor.

Runyan said, "University Medical Center Hospital has made a major commitment to providing its patients with the benefits of the most advanced imaging technologies available. ANEXA, a leader in digital imaging technology and application development, is pleased to have UMC as its digital imaging partner."

UMC Health System is the leader in comprehensive healthcare delivery in West Texas and Eastern New Mexico. UMC's new Digital Radiography systems and the new Cardiac Catheterization laboratory exemplify how UMC continues to expand its diagnostic imaging technology.

ANEXA Corporation, a subsidiary of Analogic Corporation (NASDAQ: ALOG), is opening new frontiers in digital imaging. Drawing on the extensive technology, experience, and resources of its people and partners, ANEXA offers a growing family of high-performance, next-generation digital imaging solutions to meet the clinical challenges of today and tomorrow.
