MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C.--(HSMN NewsFeed)--Revolutions Medical Corp (OTC: RMCP ) announces the completion of Clear Image Acquisition and launches its new website at www.revolutionsmedical.com. The new website has two videos; one is for the Rev Vac 3cc safety syringe and the other describes the new acquisition. Now investors can review Revolution Medical Corp's products and intellectual properties and get up to date information on the company, including stock price, press releases, and SEC filings."I am very pleased to have accomplished such a monumental acquisition for Revolutions Medical shareholders," states Ron Wheet, CEO Revolutions Medical Corp. "The proprietary MRI software tools that Rev Med now owns; color, 3D, and auto segmentation, addresses such a huge market that continues to have double-digit growth.

In 2003, an estimated 21 million MRI procedures were performed. That's a jump of 22% from the 18 million procedures performed in 2001, according to estimates from the IMV Ltd's Medical Information Division, an international organization that analyzes science-based instrument industries. Looking ahead, the installed base is predicted to grow about 35-40% over the next 5 years. Approximately 9,500 units are expected to be installed by 2008-2009. With the development of open systems, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has evolved into the best imaging procedure for many organs and structures, including brain, spine, bones, and joints, leading MRI equipment to become a 3.5 billion world wide industry today. According to a Kalorama Information study, "Medical Imaging Markets Volume II," Magnetic Resonance in the global market will continue to grow with anticipated revenues topping USD 4 billion in 2010.
