Dr. Michael Friebe
Imaging entrepreneur Michael Friebe, Ph.D., is stepping down as managing director of Tomovation GmbH and the Northern and Central Europe business of Alliance Medical GmbH at the end of the month, DOTmed News has learned.

Friebe said he will continue as a consultant for the companies through September. Anthony van de Wal will be responsible for NCE reporting and communication to Alliance Medical, according to a statement from the company. He is finance director for the NCE business, according to his Linkedin page.

Alliance Medical told DOTmed News the new "structure" of the company and its subsidiary was still under development, but that the details would be worked out soon.
