C-RAD signs sales and service agreement for Australia and New Zealand

Press release 2015-12-29

C-RAD has signed a distribution agreement with Gamma Gurus Pty. Ltd. to market the C-RAD Sentinel and Catalyst product portfolio to customers in Australia and New Zealand.

 

Gamma Gurus Pty. Ltd. was founded by Jason Beirne and Hans Feitz, who have long experience in distributing medical products used within radiation therapy. Service and application training will be provided by Gamma Gurus as well. Due to previous assignments the company is very familiar with sales and service of surface tracking solutions – such as the C-RAD Catalyst and Sentinel systems.

The Australian and New Zealand market has approximately 80 radiation therapy centres. Privately operated centres account for approximately half, with the remaining half being government-operated. C-RAD already has a footprint in the region with the installation of two Sentinel systems in Australia.

The business relation with the new distributor will be managed by the C-RAD team in Asia.

“Gamma Gurus are extremely pleased to be representing C-RAD in Australia and New Zealand,” says Jason Beirne, Managing Director of Gamma Gurus. “With the increasing trend towards stereotactic techniques and hypofractionation, the need for accurate patient positioning and target tracking is greater than ever. The C-RAD Catalyst and Sentinel systems provide elegant and proven solutions that have the ability to enhance the accuracy of treatment delivery for patients in Australian and New Zealand radiotherapy centres.”

“Australia and New Zealand are markets with high clinical standards,” says Tim Thurn, CEO of C-RAD. “With our new distributor we have the opportunity to give health systems there access to our industry-leading products for precision in advanced radiotherapy. After we strengthened our sales team in the Asia Pacific region in 2015 it was a strategic move to also expand to Australia and New Zealand. With Gamma Gurus we have found a distributor with excellent contacts within the radiation therapy community, and we welcome them into the C-RAD distributor network.”
