Swiss Medical Care received today the prestigious Swiss Technology Award for its CT EXPRES Advanced Contrast Media Delivery System. The prize was handed over in Bern by Swiss officials and represents a significant recognition for the technology offered by the CT Expres product developed in Switzerland and commercialized by Swiss Medical Care.

A total of 16 Candidates received the Swiss Technology Award as recognition for the High Technology aspect of their product and potential to significantly expand in the international markets. One of those Prize Awards, in the field of molecular biology, was also elected as Winner for 2005.
