Mediso Ltd today announced the acquisition of Bartec Technologies Ltd, UK based 
company specialised in the supply, installation and support of Nuclear Medicine 
and Molecular Imaging equipment and accessories. The acquisition strengthens 
Mediso's market position in the UK and Ireland. Financial details of the 
acquisition were not disclosed.

Mediso Medical Imaging Systems with headquarters in Budapest is a dynamic 
supplier of Nuclear Medicine and modern Hybrid Imaging equipment to the health 
care and medical research institutions of the world.

In the UK, Bartec has been synonymous with Mediso products for 18 years, proof 
of a successful partnership. With a thirty years history supplying and 
servicing for the human health, veterinary and research sectors, Bartec offers 
unique experience and expertise in the medical imaging industry.

Mediso has taken the step of having direct subsidiaries in USA, Germany, 
Australia and Poland. Following this pattern Mediso has negotiated to acquire 
Bartec from the LabLogic Group.

Istvan Bagamery, Managing Director of Mediso commented, "UK has always been 
considered as one of the most important markets for Mediso both in clinical and 
preclinical business. We have successfully developed and maintained a 
significant install base in close collaboration with Bartec over the past two 
decades. The acquisition of Bartec strengthens our local presence allowing us 
to build even closer relationships with our existing and prospective customers 
and sets path to establish new synergistic, strategic alliances with our key 
partners in the region."

Some product lines formerly handled by Bartec will transfer to Southern 
Scientific, a company in the LabLogic group to allow Bartec to concentrate more 
on Mediso applications, sales and support while continuing the core business 
operation. John Clapham, Chairman of LabLogic and MD of Bartec commented, "I 
have greatly enjoyed working in Bartec, they are a great team who look after 
customers very well. A direct link to the manufacturer, however, will allow the 
company to go from strength to strength; as LabLogic has found with its 
subsidiary in France."

Bartec will remain a trusted supplier of NMI products with its experienced 
operational team within Mediso group, and Bartec customers can continue 
communications through existing channels. The company will also focus on 
facilitation of building and maintaining strategic partnerships with key 
collaboration partners in the region.
