Varian Medical Systems, a manufacturer of medical devices and software for treating cancer and other medical conditions with radiotherapy, radiosurgery and brachytherapy based in Palo Alto, Calif., has announced it is acquiring InfiMed for approximately $15 million, according to a news release.
InfiMed, based in Liverpool, N.Y., is a privately owned supplier of workstations including hardware and software for processing diagnostic X-ray images.
"The addition of InfiMed will enable Varian to better serve its x-ray customers as a one-stop shop for x-ray tubes, flat panel image detectors and workstations," said Robert Kluge, president of Varian's x-ray products business, in the release. "InfiMed's products and know-how will enable us to provide more fully integrated x-ray component solutions to our customers. This could provide our customers with easier more seamless integration of Varian components into their systems and help users achieve improved performance in their imaging systems. We also hope to enable equipment developers to reduce time to market and access niche markets that might otherwise be out of reach."
