Hi Bruce, I call my local Regional Medical Center last week to see if they have a Scanner. The said no, so I asked why. They told me the Scanner cost $2 Million and the procedure brings in $500 per person. This is not cost effective for the hospital. In reflecting back, it seems that all the Scanners are sold to major Medical Centers such as Universities and Government hospitals. So, if this is all true, the market for the Scanner is limited, unless the cost is brought down. I believe it was you who made this point in earlier posting. Great technology, large world wide markets, and limited sales due to cost of the Scanner. Not good from a investment point. Stock Bull
