AccSys Unveils Web Site


Pleasanton, CA - September 29, 1997

      Dr. Robert W. Hamm, President and CEO of AccSys Technology, Inc. announced today that the Company's web site, located at www.accsys.com, will be available to customers and other interested members of the internet community on September 29. According to Dr. Hamm, "The opening of the AccSys web site is the latest step in our Company's ongoing efforts to make ourselves more available and visible to our present and future customers as well as to others in the larger internet community." The site contains current information on the Company and its products along with general information on radiofrequency ion linear accelerator (linac) technology and the uses of linacs for applications in research, industry and medicine.

      AccSys Technology's PULSAR® product line represents the next generation of positron radiotracer production equipment. Positron radiotracers are used in medicine for research and diagnostic imaging studies using techniques such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or high energy Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT). PULSAR® establishes a new standard in optimized performance for efficient, cost-effective and reliable production of positron-labeled radiotracers for regional distribution, physiologic imaging research and clinical diagnostic applications.

      The Company's LANSAR™ systems are powerful neutron sources which have been developed specifically for non-destructive inspection applications in both research and industrial environments. These unique LANSAR™ linacs use proven accelerator technology to provide systems designed for reliable long-term operation in applications such as neutron radiography, neutron activation analysis and medical uses of neutrons.

      AccSys' PL-series high-current pulsed proton linacs provide a wide range of peak and average currents at energies from 2 MeV to above 100 MeV. These high power systems can be configured to accelerate either H+ or H- beams, or both simultaneously. Suitable applications range from synchrotron injectors and research to isotope production and cancer therapy.

      AccSys Technology is the world's leading commercial producer of rf ion linacs. The Company was founded in 1985 to commercialize advanced radiofrequency (rf) ion linac technology for applications in medicine, industry and research, with emphasis on developing an innovative system for producing the short-lived radiotracers used in medical positron imaging. AccSys has produced and installed 14 rf ion linac systems worldwide since 1987.
