Cooperation Agreements To Provide More Diagnostic Options with Omnisense
Ravensburg, Germany (November 20, 2002) - Cooperation agreements
between Sunlight Medical and leading medical device manufacturers now provide added value
for users of Sunlight Omnisense bone sonometers. ECG and spirometry diagnostic
applications produced by Schiller AG and QRS Diagnostic have been adapted for use on
Sunlight's compact and convenient devices.
These additions to the Sunlight Omnisense 7000S and 8000S bone sonometers provide extra
value at low cost for general practitioners, family practitioners, and internists.
Sunlight's bone assessment devices are recognized around the world for their accuracy,
precision, and quick and convenient measurement procedure. Thousands of units are in

applications - a step forward for physicians and patients alike," explains Yfat Scialom,
Sunlight's General Manager for Europe. "This grouping of products is expected to be a
winning combination."
Both electrocardiogram options offer 12-lead electrocardiogram capabilities with real-time customizable ECG display and a wide
variety of result and printout options. Computer-generated results include automatic QRS measurements displayed graphically and
numerically and a preliminary interpretation of results.
