January 5, 2011 By Bio-Medicine.Org

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — DJO
Incorporated (“DJO” or the “Company”), a global provider of medical
device solutions for musculoskeletal health, vascular health and
pain management, today announced the acquisition of Elastic
Therapy, Inc. (ETI). The acquisition closed yesterday, January 4,
