Nanox (NASDAQ: NNOX) has entered into a distribution agreement with SOLME RC, S.A., a Costa Rica-based medical equipment distributor, to market and support the Nanox.ARC, a multi-source digital tomosynthesis system designed to expand access to 3D medical imaging. The agreement positions Nanox to penetrate a new market in Latin America, following similar moves in Argentina and Peru earlier this year, signaling the company's accelerating global expansion strategy.
Under the agreement, SOLME will oversee marketing, distribution, installation, training, and ongoing technical support for the Nanox.ARC in Costa Rica. SOLME is a registered supplier to the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS), the country's principal purchaser and provider of hospital services. This relationship could facilitate adoption of the Nanox.ARC within Costa Rica's public healthcare system, potentially opening doors to broader deployment. Commercialization will follow applicable regulatory registration, including an initial six-month proof-of-concept device registration period before full registration. This phased approach allows for real-world validation of the technology in the Costa Rican market before a full-scale rollout.
The Nanox.ARC is a cost-effective, 3D multi-source digital tomosynthesis imaging system designed for ease of use and scalability. It is part of the broader Nanox ecosystem, which includes Nanox.AI, a suite of AI-based algorithms that augment the interpretation of routine CT imaging to identify early signs often associated with chronic disease; Nanox.CLOUD, a cloud-based platform for secure data management, storage, and advanced imaging analytics; Nanox.MARKETPLACE and USARAD Holdings, which provide access to remote radiology and cardiology experts and comprehensive teleradiology services; and Nanox Health IT, which combines deep healthcare IT expertise with leading technology partners to deliver RIS, PACS, AI, dictation, and secure infrastructure solutions that streamline workflows and support safer, more efficient care delivery.
The agreement matters because it represents another step in Nanox's mission to drive the world's transition to preventive health care by delivering an integrated, end-to-end medical imaging and healthcare services platform. By combining affordable imaging hardware, advanced AI-based solutions, cloud-based software, access to remote radiology, health IT solutions, and a marketplace, Nanox aims to enable earlier detection, improved clinical efficiency, and broader access to care. Expanding into Costa Rica, a market where access to advanced imaging may be limited, aligns with the company's vision to expand the reach of medical imaging both within and beyond traditional hospital settings. The collaboration with SOLME, a local distributor with established ties to the CCSS, could accelerate adoption and demonstrate the viability of the Nanox model in diverse healthcare environments. For investors, this agreement underscores Nanox's commitment to growing its footprint in Latin America and could serve as a blueprint for further expansions.
