GE Healthcare, an integral part of General Electric Company ( GE ), recently announced that it has received the European Union's approval for marketing its VIZAMYL (Flutemetamol (18F) Solution for Injection). VIZAMYL is a radiopharmaceutical medicinal product for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging of beta amyloid plaque in brains of adult patients suffering from cognitive diseases. VIZAMYL will enable patients to get a neurological diagnosis of diseases such as Alzheimer's (AD).

General Electric's VIZAMYL is the only diagnostic PET imaging tracer approved in the Euproean Union for detection of beta amyloid and visual interpretation of colour images. Along with the commercial launch of VIZAMYL in early 2015, GE Healthcare has also developed a mandatory electronic reader training program (ETP) for readers of VIZAMYL images.

GE Healthcare provides transformational medical technologies and services by ensuring greater access to enhanced quality and affordable healthcare facilities across the globe. The approval is likely to further expand the scope of innovative diagnostic technologies for more accurate assessment of specific patients evaluated for Alzheimer's disease and support further research into the required disease modifying agents.

General Electric, the parent company of GE Healthcare, is one of the most diversified technologies and financial service corporations in the world. Its segments include Power & Water, Oil & Gas, Energy Management, Aviation, Healthcare, Transportation, Home & Business Solutions, and GE Capital.

General Electric currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Other stocks that look promising in the industry include Federal Signal Corp. ( FSS ), Macquarie Infrastructure Company LLC. ( MIC ) and ITT Corporation ( ITT ), each having a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

BRUSSELS The European Union will make a decision on further Russia sanctions by Friday, Italian Foreign Minister and EU foreign policy chief-designate Federica Mogherini said Tuesday.

Speaking at a news conference in the European Parliament, Mogherini said the work on the new sanctions package started on Monday and said the European Commission will present options by Wednesday.

And by Friday a decision will be adopted, she said.

The sanctions are expected to build on measures taken in July to hit Russias energy, defense and financial sectors. Officials said late Monday that details were still being worked out. Russia has already warned it would retaliate against any fresh sanctions measures.

At a summit Saturday, EU leaders urged Russia to withdraw its troops from Ukraine and stem the flow of weapons and fighters across its border into eastern Ukraine, where pro-Moscow rebels are facing Ukrainian forces.

Russia has said it has sent no troops into Ukraine and has called on Kiev to sit down and negotiate with the rebels.

Mogherini said the situation in eastern Ukraine is getting more dramatic.

We speak about an aggression, she told reporters. I think that we need to respond in the strongest possible way to that.
