However, the individual quarterly periods are difficult to compare because the company still is in a phase of rapid growth, and very dependent on its distributors and their success in sales," says Yvonne Mårtensson, CEO of CellaVision."Yet another three Nordic hospitals have decided to use CellaVison's products during the third quarter. One of them - Malmö University Hospital, our very first client - has upgraded from the DiffMaster to a CellaVision DM96. In addition to continuing to fortify our position on markets where we are already established, we are also evaluating the Japanese market. Our products are well in line with the Japanese market, which is characterised by large automated laboratories."
