Medical Devices

The range of medical devices is wide and varied. Estimates suggest that about half a million different medical devices are on the European market. These  range from simple day-to-day objects such as thermometers, glasses and braces to scalpels and highly technical and sophisticated devices such as X-ray and computed tomography machines, cardiac pace makers and in vitro diagnostics and play a vital role in public health care.
