Amersham (formerly Nycomed Amersham) wants your doctor to see right through you. The company is the world's top producer (ahead of Mallinckrodt) of contrast-imaging agents used to enhance image quality in X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound procedures. It is also a leading producer of radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear medicine imaging. The firm's imaging segment accounts for more than half of its sales. Amersham is involved in biotechnology research through its APBiotech (formerly Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) joint venture with Pharmacia (the company owns 55%, and Pharmacia owns the rest). The unit makes scanners, sequencers, microarrays, industrial separations, and other research supplies.
