                                  Strategic partnership between Elekta and BESA to improve clinical workflows

                                  May 23, 2017
                                  HELSINKI, May 23, 2017 – Elekta (EKTA-B.ST) announced today that Elekta Oy, a fully-owned subsidiary of Elekta AB and a global leading provider of magnetoencephalography (MEG) technology, has entered a long-term strategic partnership with BESA GmbH. The purpose of the partnership is to jointly develop and commercialize clinical software solutions for MEG, with the initial aim of providing a world-class workflow for the pre-surgical evaluation of epileptic patients. The collaboration will later expand to other clinical uses of the Elekta Neuromag® TRIUX™ (http://www.elekta.com/TRIUX) MEG system.

                                  Elekta Oy is the leading supplier of MEG technology with more than 100 MEG systems delivered and a 28-year track record of bringing leading solutions to the market. Founded in 1995, BESA (Brain Electrical Source Analysis) GmbH is a leading supplier of analytical software for MEG and electroencephalography (EEG) with 2,000 customers worldwide.

                                  Janne Huhtala, Head of Elekta’s Global MEG Business, says: “This partnership brings together BESA’s software development experience and Elekta’s MEG experts. Our sole focus will be to create a smooth, clinically appropriate software workflow built on the experience of – and in close collaboration with – our MEG users.”

                                  The announcement was made during the biennial meeting of the International Society for the Advancement of Clinical Magnetoencephalography (ISACM), in Sendai, Japan where both companies were present.
