CIRS Inc. has announced the acquisition of ATS Laboratories. This merger brings together both companies’ technologies, providing a new level of choice in ultrasonic tissue mimicking materials while maintaining the same level of quality and customer service that ATS and CIRS customers have come to expect from these companies.
ATS Laboratories Inc. was established in 1978 as a privately held corporation located in Bridgeport, Connecticut. ATS designs and manufacturers tissue-mimicking phantoms for the routine performance monitoring, training and in-process production testing of ultrasound imaging systems. Each company’s ultrasound products are similar but use different tissue mimicking materials providing the best choice for all customers.
“The incorporation of ATS into CIRS will transpire over the next few weeks. It should be a smooth transition for both ATS customers and their distribution network,” states Ted Lynch, ultrasound manager. “ATS products will be readily available with little or no delay in filling customer orders.”
Early in 2018 ATS products will be manufactured and delivered by CIRS from Norfolk, Virgina.
