Lund, Sweden – Clinical Laserthermia Systems AB (publ) (CLS) Clinical Laserthermia Systems AB (publ) (“CLS” or “the Company”) announces today that its US subsidiary has selected Quest International, a global aftermarket technical service provider to OEMs, to provide service and logistics operations for the US market. Under the agreement, Quest will provide end to end white glove service management including field services, depot repair, and warehousing and logistics support for CLS’s soft tissue ablation system, the TRANBERG Thermal Therapy System.
