Executive Summary
Europe's largest medical device industry association, Eucomed, has now finalised its Industry Profile 2003 and invited orders for the 75-page illustrated book. This Profile will be in much demand since, as the European Commission openly admits, there is a dearth of accurate data in this area. The report, which will officially be released at Eucomed's AGM in Cannes next week, is split into six main chapters. These are as follows: what is the medical technology industry; the medical technology market place (including expenditure on technology, market figures and import and export figures); healthcare priorities (including human tissues, diabetes and cancer); medical technology and EU legislation; international initiatives; and challenges and opportunities ahead.
