Olicon executives declined to return calls seeking comment, but a source close to the situation confirmed the reduction in Olicons direct sales force and change in the Aliso Viejo, CA-based companys direction.
The two firms signed an agreement in August that would allow SMS to offer Olicons diagnostic workstations and PACSView teleradiology offerings to its customers.

Olicon will be keeping its booth at this years RSNA meeting, according to a RSNA source.
