Thomas, I will be surprise if the MAMO can sell for more than 2 units
a year. With an annual income of 1 million it is not enough to keep
the company afloat. Not only MRI machines are expensive to buy but
also expensive to maintain there is a huge cost to pay for the space
that it takes up. With the high cost of health care, breast imaging
using MRI is not the answer. It takes around 30-40 minutes to scan a
patient. Think about it! How many patients can be scanned in per
day? I have to admit that MRI does have avantages over conventional
x-ray but not enough to get the insurance to pay for it.

I would stay away definitely for now.
