“Financially, we had a strong third quarter so we recovered after a weak first half of the year. The end of the year promises to be highly interesting,” says Johan Löf, President of RaySearch.

“In 2011, we have focused on our strategic shift from complete dependence on partners to establishing opportunities to sell directly to clinics in parallel with our partner-based business model. Our order book has now started to grow as a result of the considerable interest shown in RayStation®, particularly in the US, and we have high hopes of completing a few more transactions toward the end of 2011,” concludes Johan Löf.
