Dear Customer,
I am happy to present in this issue of IMAGES our focus on Clinical
Excellence. We build into our products technologies which provide doctors a
cutting edge to diagnose. These products are used by leading practitioners in
universities, hospitals and clinics across the world.
Clinical experiences on our products and technologies are shared through our
user seminars. We hosted Dr. Robert I. Serwick and Prof. Robert R.Edelman
who spoke to our luminaries at Delhi and Mumbai on 3.0T MRI capabilities. We
also hosted Dr. Lawrence Tannenbaum who conducted a one day seminar in Mumbai.
We migrate across platforms on technology breakthroughs. Ultrasound is one of
the best examples of breakthrough migration in GE. BT 2001 technology is
incorporated in our latest products L7 & L9 and VIVID 7. The India launch
was at Bangalore with a seminar by Dr. Gara who spoke on the capabilities of the
new TruScan technology from GE.
Clinical excellence and economic value are the foundation of our offerings in
the South Asian market. I am happy to share that in the first 3 quarters of
2001, we have already crossed our Year 2000 revenue of US $ 200M and we head
towards a 40% plus growth as we close the year this December.
We thank you for your support and look forward to meeting you at the forth
coming conferences like CSI, SNC, FOGSI and others this year.
