HTA evaluations for imaging devices
31 May 2016

We have recently reviewed the number of HTA reports regarding imaging modalities. We can see somewhat of a reduction during 2015 compared to 2014. The trend for the first 4 months of 2016 would indicate an increase compared to the year before. Subscribe to our HTA services to stay on top of what is happening: http://htasearch.synergus.com /
