Hologic and iCAD Sign Private Label Distribution Agreement for Film Based CAD Systems BEDFORD, Mass., and NASHUA, N.H., Nov. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hologic, Inc. (NASDAQ:HOLX), a leading provider of women's diagnostic imaging systems and state-of-the-art digital imaging systems, and iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD), today announced a private label agreement to produce and market film- based Computer Aided Detection (CAD) systems. Under the agreement, iCAD will manufacture film-based CAD systems for Hologic targeted to serve lower case- volume mammography clinics. The companies estimate that these clinics comprise over half the potential market for breast cancer analog CAD products. "By combining Hologic's film based analog mammography systems with the iCAD technology, we believe we can provide even more physicians with advanced systems in the quest for early breast cancer detection," said Jack Cumming, Hologic's Chairman and CEO. "Early detection can significantly improve a woman's chance of surviving breast cancer and we remain passionately committed to improving women's healthcare by providing a comprehensive portfolio of tools and innovations to aid in early detection." "iCAD's innovative designs allows the company to provide computer aided detection solutions that are increasingly affordable to the large number of women's health centers and clinics performing less than 20 mammography cases per day," said W. Scott Parr, President and Chief Executive Officer of iCAD, Inc. "This agreement reflects our continued efforts to make CAD accessible to all women concerned with the risk of breast cancer."
