MUNDELEIN, Ill., Oct. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Bio-logic Systems Corp.
(Nasdaq: BLSC), a designer and marketer of computerized medical electro-
diagnostic equipment, today announced that it has received ISO 9001 and
European Medical Device Directive (MDD) certifications for its full Quality
Management System. The ISO 9001 certification signifies that the company
conforms with regulatory requirements for the design, manufacturing,
distribution and servicing of the company's electroencephalograph systems
(EEG) and evoked response (EP) systems. The MDD award acknowledges that these
systems meet the rigid safety requirements for medical devices in Europe. The

United States, allowing us to continue to aggressively market our EEG and EP
systems in the 18 European Union countries. With the achievement of ISO 9001,
we have strengthened our competitive position by providing our customers with
the confidence of purchasing products and services from us that meet
