Xpro has more than 15 years of experience and more than 120 systems installed at private customer sites in Brazil, according to GE. Xpro's interventional x-ray product capabilities combined with GE's complementary imaging technology and global distribution presence will significantly enhance GE's offerings in Brazil, while creating a broader platform that will address access and quality challenges in emerging interventional x-ray segments, GE said.

Xpro will be part of GE's Detection & Guidance Solutions (DGS) business, expanding the unit's engineering and manufacturing presence in Brazil, GE said. The company will also bring 132 employees to DGS.
