Trends in Lasers: Burgeoning Uses Offer Growth Opportunities
The medical laser market could benefit from an upswing in medical tourism and aesthetic applications. Medical tourism – where patients seek health care outside their own country or region, whether to reduce costs or to find better care than they could at home – is booming. As Americans continue to struggle with a faltering economy, medical tourism insiders remind us, ongoing debates over health care reform in the US could easily bring the country to a halt. And the medical tour...
