The president and CEO of Viking Systems, Jed Kennedy, said, “We made great progress in promoting Viking’s 3DHD Vision System this summer [a traditionally slow period]. Typically, the fourth quarter is the strongest quarter for hospital capital equipment both in the U.S. and in major markets around the world.
