Why medical technology often doesnt make it from drawing board to hospital
https://theconversation.com/why-medical-technology-often-doesnt-make-it-from -drawing-board-to-hospital-72981 This article, published under a cc licence, so freely available, criticises free software and not providing incentives to make it robust enough and easy enough for clinical use. The conversation is not peer-reviewed, but is a voice for academics, who are used to peer scrutiny. I do not know the field, but I can see that there is huge scope for tools to help visualisation of scans that might make them easier to interpret. But I suspect it is a bit naïve to blame incentives, and it sounds a bit neolib to me. But somebody more expert in the area may have better grounds for comment. The article can have comments made about it, and I think you can be confident that the author will see them and respond. Regards David David Hirst Mobile: +44 7831 405443
