Lexington, Mass., February 27, 2020 – FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc., a leading provider of diagnostic imaging and medical informatics solutions, and Sun Nuclear Corporation, a provider of innovative solutions for radiation therapy, diagnostic imaging and patient alignment, announced that the two organizations have joined efforts to educate, train and bring awareness to the importance of breast cancer screening.
A special educational event was hosted by the two organizations at Sun Nuclear Corporation headquarters in Melbourne, Florida on February 26 to raise awareness of the benefits of mammography screening for early detection of breast cancer.
“Fujifilm and Sun Nuclear Corporation share a common interest in enabling access to breast health education and mammography screening services for every woman who needs it,” said Rick Banner, Senior Director of Marketing, FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. “Through outreach and collaboration with women’s health leaders, we are hoping to empower women to be fearless in their approach to their breast health.”

Approximately 60 Sun Nuclear distributors from all around the world and 200 Sun Nuclear employees toured the coach.
