April 27, 2010 (FinancialWire) — Sectra (OTC: SSBBF) (STO: SECTB) said it has secured its first order for the software SyMRI Suite from the Institute of Forensic Medicine at the University of Bern, Switzerland.

According to Sectra, the software will enhance quality in conjunction with virtual autopsies.

The company said that the University of Bern is the first of a handful of pilot customers that have chosen to purchase the software, which is used together with Sectra PACS workstations, which is meant to provide radiologists with a more efficient workflow.

The SyMRI Suite was rolled out at the beginning of 2010. The software for synthetic magnetic resonance helps hospital personnel to reduce the time required per patient for MR examinations, thus increasing the availability of the MR equipment.

In addition, tissue can be quantified, identified and its volume determined, according to Sectra. The SyMRI Suite is developed by Sectra’s partner Synthetic MR.

Sweden-based Sectra develops and sells products in the niche segments of medical systems and secure communication systems. The company was founded in 1978 and has its roots in Linköping University in Sweden.
