Frost & Sullivan Hosts A Web Conference For Healthcare Digital Technology Industry

According to a recent report, prepared by Frost & Sullivan, financial conditions affecting healthcare organizations have resulted in reduction in the number of purchases of new Digital Radiography (DR) and Computed Radiography (CR) units. Medical imaging industries are currently facing a major challenge, which is the lack of available capital for developing technologies that need high initial investments, such as digital solutions. Yet, the recovering of economy and the available funds will continue to improve in 2011.
