Vancouver, BC, September 9, 2024 – Clarius Mobile Health, a leading provider of high-definition handheld ultrasound systems, has signed a new distribution agreement with Marubun corporation, an electronics trading company listed on the Tokyo Prime Market in Japan. Marubun is now able to sell Clarius wireless ultrasound scanners to hospitals and specialty clinics in Japan.
“We’re excited to expand our global footprint and to deliver on our mission to enable ultrasound anywhere by working with Marubun, which has a strong operating model of bringing innovative products to market in Japan,” says Clarius Chief Commercial Officer, Tony Titus.
Clarius offers a comprehensive line of high quality handheld wireless scanners designed to deliver superior image quality for a wide range of clinical applications at a fraction of the cost of traditional ultrasound systems. While compact and cart-based systems are currently most used for medical imaging in Japan, the popularity of handheld devices is growing as it is in other parts of the world.1
“Innovation, ease of use and high-quality imaging were important factors in Marubun’s decision to represent Clarius in Japan,” says Karl Kawabe, Director, Medical Device at Marubun. “Clarius is a leader in ultrasound AI-powered innovation, and we believe this will help physicians in hospitals and clinics to learn and use ultrasound more effectively and thereby increase faster adoption.”
