TOP REVIEWS FROM MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY AND EVALUATION
Pretty good I though there was a bit to much overlap with Course 3, and I thought the assignment was a bit nebulous
Good content. But, I expected this course to be about technical analysis of medical technology rather than just cost, benefit, or effectivity analysis.
I liked this course... its very useful and 4 weeks of learning the medical technology and evaluation gave me a strength to find the aspects of modern medical technology.
Very informative course and very valuable information to this specialization
