Most recently, Ryland was VP of global corporate partnerships for Mindray Ultrasound, where she managed contracts for Abbott, Kaiser Permanente, Konica Minolta, FujiFilm, and Siemens Healthineers, as well as developed relationship arrangements with numerous other major industry giants, YorLabs said.

Prior to Mindray, Ryland held similar positions with Zonare, Stentor (Philips), Siemens, and Acuson.

Ryland's appointment reflects YorLabs' ongoing efforts to develop a veteran team of healthcare executives focused on introducing the next-generation interventional imaging technology, the company said.
