UK needs funding push for medical engineering success
Article Abstract:
The downtrend in the sale of UK's medical engineering equipment can be attributed to the poor government investment in the National Health Service which is considered the main customer for medical devices. Furthermore, the inadequate federal financial assistance on medical engineering hinders the development of innovative techniques suitable for medical equipment applications which, in turn, contributes to the decline. Such a trend may adversely affect the objective of the UK's medical equipment industry to become a major player in the global medical equipment market.
